Efficient Text Proximity Search

Abstract: In addition to purely occurrence-based relevance models, term proximity has been frequently used to enhance retrieval quality of keyword-oriented retrieval systems. While there have been approaches on effective scoring functions that incorporate proximity, there has not been much work on algorithms or access methods for their efficient evaluation. This paper presents an efficient evaluation framework including a proximity scoring function integrated within a top-k query engine for text retrieval. We propose pr… Show more

“…Schenkel et al [18] developed efficient topk query processing techniques for a proximity-aware IR model. They focused on a proximity-aware scoring function defined by a linear combination of a standard BM25-based score and a proximity score, and extended an existing top-k query processing technique [20] that was originally intended for a standard IR model such as TF-IDF and BM25.…”

“…They showed that their techniques speeded up evaluation considerably with an improved result quality. However, since the underlying top-k query processing technique intends for relatively short queries as does other existing top-k query processing techniques, those evaluated efficiently by their techniques in [18] are limited to relatively short queries.…”

“…, T D } of D string documents of total length n, drawn from an alphabet Σ = [σ], and the query is a pattern P [1..p] over Σ. Muthukrishnan considered a family of problems called thresholded document listing: given an additional parameter K, list only the documents where some function score(P, d) of the occurrences of P in T d exceeded K. For example, the document mining problem aims to return the documents where P appears at least K times, whereas the repeats problem aims to return the documents where two occurrences of P appear at distance at most K. While document mining has obvious connections with typical term-frequency measures of relevance [6,1], the repeats problem is more connected to various problems in bioinformatics [4,10]. Also notice that the repeats problem is closely related to the term proximity based document retrieval in IR field [32,5,29,33,34]. Muthukrishnan achieved optimal time for both problems, with O(n) space (in words) if K is specified at indexing time and O(n log n) if specified at query time.…”
