Abstract:
Extracting keywords and keyphrases mainly for identifying content of a document, has an importance role in text processing tasks such as text summarization, information retrieval, and query expansion. In this research, we introduce a new keyword/keyphrase extraction approach in which both single and multi-document keyword/keyphrase extraction techniques are considered. The proposed approach is specifically practical when a user is interested in additional data such as keywords/keyphrases related to a topic or query. In the proposed approach, first a set of documents are retrieved based on user's query, then a single document keyword extraction method is applied to extract candidate keyword/keyphrases from each retrieved document. Finally, a new re-scoring scheme is introduced to extract final keywords/keyphrases. We have evaluated the proposed method based on the relationship between the final keyword/keyphrases with the initial user query, and based user's satisfaction. Our experimental results show how much the extracted keywords/keyphrases are relevant and wellmatched with user's need.
