Optimal Query Expansion (QE) Processing Methods with Semantically Encoded Structured Thesauri Terminology.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Greenberg, Jane – Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 2001
Explores what might be the optimal query expansion (QE) processing method with semantically coded thesauri. Examines whether QE via semantically coded thesauri terminology is more effective in the "automatic" or "interactive" processing environment.

Using Kintsch's Discourse Comprehension Theory To Model the User's Coding of an Informative Message from an Enabling Information Retrieval System.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Cole, Charles; Mandelblatt, Bertie – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 2000
Uses Kintsch's proposition-based construction-integration theory of discourse comprehension to detail the user coding operations that occur in each of the three subsystems (Perception, Comprehension, Application) in which users process an information retrieval systems (IRS) message. Describes an IRS device made up of two separate parts that enable…
