Cross Language Query Expansion Approach for CIMS Based on Weighted D-S Evidence Theory

Abstract:

With the Computer Integrated Manufacturing System and Information Technology rapid development, rapid retrieval multilingual becomes one of the hot spots in Machine Translation. The cross-language information retrieval (CLIR) provides a convenient way, enabling users to use their own familiar language to submit queries to retrieve documents in another language. Basic query expansion is one of the effective methods to improve recall of information retrieval. There are many researchers have proposed many extension methods, but most methods are simply added to the query expansion terms. If we do not distinguish the original query words and extended words, expanded query may deviate from the original semantics. So, it is very inconvenience for mechanical engineer and programmer. Based on Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence, we proposed a query expansion computing model, which considered as the main evidence of the original query terms, while the extensions as a secondary evidence of the original query terms. Which method to use semantic dictionary Han and Uygur-Chinese bilingual dictionary of synonyms forest and How to get the query word synonyms, near-synonyms and hypernym. Latent Semantic Analysis is used to obtain semantic relationships query words related words the using potentially large-scale text. The combination of these two types of evidence is in order to put forward a weighted combination of the Dempster-Shafer rule. Experimental results show that this method can effectively improve retrieval efficiency in Mechanical Engineering and Information Technology. The research results can be provided a reference for CIMS multilingual quick retrieval.
