Abstract

Structured document retrieval requires the ranking of document elements. Previous approaches either aggregate term weights or retrieval status values, or propose alternatives to idf, for example, ief (inverse element frequency). We propose and investigate in this paper a new approach: Context-specific idf, which is, in contrast to aggregation-based ranking functions, parameter-free.
