Soft Computing in Information Retrieval Techniques and Applications / edited by Fabio Crestani, Gabriella Pasi.

Information retrieval (IR) aims at defining systems able to provide a fast and effective content-based access to a large amount of stored information. The aim of an IR system is to estimate the relevance of documents to users' information needs, expressed by means of a query. This is a very dif...
