Building Bayesian network-based information retrieval systems
Luis M. de Campos, Juan Miguel Zarandona Fernández, Juan F. Huete · 2002
Bayesian networks are suitable models to deal with the information retrieval problem because they are appropriate tools to manage the intrinsic uncertainty with which this area is pervaded. In this paper we introduce several modifications to the previous works on this field adding new features and showing how a good retrieval effectiveness can be achieved by improving the quality of the Bayesian networks used in the model and tuning some of their parameters.
