ABSTRACT:
Refining a current query. Receiving information regarding the relevancy of documents retrieved from a document collection in response to a current query. Ranking the retrieved documents in accordance with the relevancy information. Forming a candidate query based on the rankings and analysis of locations of the retrieved documents in a latent semantic index vector space formed from the retrieved document. Applying the candidate query to the document collection. Ranking the documents retrieved in response to the candidate query in accordance with the received relevancy information. Comparing the ranking of documents retrieved in response to the candidate query and the ranking of documents retrieved in response to the current query with the received relevancy information. Choosing the query that produces the best ranking.
