Query and document topic category transition analysis system and method and query expansion-based information retrieval system and method
First Claim
1. A method of analyzing transition between a query topic category and a document topic category, comprising:
- determining a query topic category based on query and document text information with respect to a query input from a user and determining a document topic category based on query and document text information with respect to a document which a user selects from information retrieval results for the input query;
deriving a weight with respect to topic category transition between the classified query topic category and the classified document topic category;
generating a topic category transition map as a result of analyzing topic category transition between a user query and a relevant document based on the derived weight for the topic category transition;
generating corresponding documents as pseudo documents according to each topic category for the user query and the relevant document based on the generated topic category transition map; and
extracting at least one representative keyword from the generated pseudo documents and storing at least one representative keyword.

Abstract
An information retrieval system and method, and more particularly, a query and document topic category transition analysis system and method in which a query topic category of a query input from a user as an information retrieval keyword and a document topic category of a document which a user regards as relevant and selects from information retrieval results are classified to analyze transition between the query topic category and the document topic category, and a query expansion-based information retrieval system and method using query and document topic category transition analysis in which a query input from a user is expanded using a topic category transition analysis result, and corresponding information or documents are retrieved using the expanded query are provided.

11. A query expansion-based information retrieval method using query and document topic category transition analysis, comprising:
-
in a state in which a topic category transition map is generated as a result of analyzing topic category transition between a user query and a relevant document, and corresponding documents are generated as pseudo documents according to each topic category for the user query and the relevant document, determining a corresponding query topic category based on query and document text information for an input query input from a user; allocating a relevant document topic category for the classified query topic category based on the topic category transition map; ranking representative keywords for the query topic category and the relevant document topic category based on the pseudo documents; expanding the input query using the ranked representative keywords; and retrieving corresponding documents using the expanded query. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14)
