Shaw, W. M., Jr. – Information Processing and Management, 1990
Investigates the presence of clustering structure in a document collection and the influence of the presence of clustering structure on the success of cluster-based retrieval. Term-weight and similarity thresholds are discussed, empirical and statistical significance are considered, and indexing exhaustivity for document representation is…

Shaw, W. M., Jr. – Information Processing and Management, 1993
Describes a study conducted on the cystic fibrosis (CF) database, a subset of MEDLINE, that investigated clustering structure and the effectiveness of cluster-based retrieval as a function of the exhaustivity of the uncontrolled subject descriptions. Results are compared to calculations for controlled descriptions based on Medical Subject Headings…
