Abstract

The fuzzy information retrieval model was proposed some years ago to solve several limitations of the Boolean model without a need of a complete redesign of the information retrieval system. However, the complexity of the fuzzy query language makes it difficult to formulate user queries. Among other proposed approaches to solve this problem, we find the Inductive Query by Example (IQBE) framework, where queries are automatically derived from sets of documents provided by the user. In this work we test the applicability of a multiobjective evolutionary IQBE technique for fuzzy queries in a machine learning environment. To do so, the Cranfield documentary collection is divided into two different document sets, labeled training and test, and the algorithm is run on the former to obtain several queries that are then validated on the latter.
