Lopez-Pujalte, Cristina; Guerrero-Bote, Vicente P.; de Moya-Anegon, Felix – Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 2003
Discusses genetic algorithms in information retrieval, especially for relevance feedback, and evaluates the efficacy of a genetic algorithm with various order-based fitness functions for relevance feedback in a test database. Compares results with the Ide dec-hi method, one of the best traditional methods. (Contains 56 references.) (Author/LRW)

Ribeiro-Neto, Berthier; Laender, Alberto H. F.; de Lima, Luciano R. S. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 2001
Evaluates the retrieval performance of an algorithm that automatically categorizes medical documents, which consists in assigning an International Code of Disease (ICD) based on well-known information retrieval techniques. Reports on experimental results that tested precision using a database of over 20,000 medical documents. (Author/LRW)
