  2. Boolean model of information retrieval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_model_of...

    The (standard) Boolean model of information retrieval (BIR) [1] is a classical information retrieval (IR) model and, at the same time, the first and most-adopted one. [2] The BIR is based on Boolean logic and classical set theory in that both the documents to be searched and the user's query are conceived as sets of terms (a bag-of-words model ).

  3. Phrase search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phrase_search

    Phrase search is one of many search operators that are standard in search engine technology, along with Boolean operators (AND, OR, and NOT), truncation and wildcard operators (commonly represented by the asterisk symbol), field code operators (which look for specific words in defined fields, such as the Author field in a periodical database ...

  4. Boolean analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_analysis

    Boolean analysis is an explorative method to detect deterministic dependencies between items. The detected dependencies must be confirmed in subsequent research. Methods of Boolean analysis do not assume that the detected dependencies describe the data completely. There may be other probabilistic dependencies as well.

  5. SAT solver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAT_solver

    In computer science and formal methods, a SAT solver is a computer program which aims to solve the Boolean satisfiability problem.On input a formula over Boolean variables, such as "(x or y) and (x or not y)", a SAT solver outputs whether the formula is satisfiable, meaning that there are possible values of x and y which make the formula true, or unsatisfiable, meaning that there are no such ...

  6. Concept search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concept_search

    A concept search (or conceptual search) is an automated information retrieval method that is used to search electronically stored unstructured text (for example, digital archives, email, scientific literature, etc.) for information that is conceptually similar to the information provided in a search query.

  7. Extended Boolean model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Boolean_model

    The Extended Boolean model was described in a Communications of the ACM article appearing in 1983, by Gerard Salton, Edward A. Fox, and Harry Wu. The goal of the Extended Boolean model is to overcome the drawbacks of the Boolean model that has been used in information retrieval. The Boolean model doesn't consider term weights in queries, and ...

  9. Ranking (information retrieval) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranking_(information...

    Ranking of query is one of the fundamental problems in information retrieval (IR), [1] the scientific/engineering discipline behind search engines. [2] Given a query q and a collection D of documents that match the query, the problem is to rank, that is, sort, the documents in D according to some criterion so that the "best" results appear early in the result list displayed to the user.
