Abstract

In semi-structured information systems, generally, the adaptation of documents is essential to give the user the feeling that the query result is adapted to his preferences. The user's needs can be defined in a user profile. But, in the literature, adaptation systems are designed for a particular domain and are oriented towards either navigation adaptation or content adaptation. Adaptation takes place after the user's query has been evaluated. So, in this paper, we contribute to propose an adaptation algorithm which is domain independent and whose adaptation takes place before user's query evaluation. This algorithm consists in enriching the user query on the basis of user profile in order to adapt the results to the user.
