This book takes a unique approach to information retrieval by
laying down the foundations for a modern algebra of information
retrieval based on lattice theory. All major retrieval methods
developed so far are described in detail a" Boolean, Vector Space
and probabilistic methods, but also Web retrieval algorithms like
PageRank, HITS, and SALSA a" and the author shows that they all can
be treated elegantly in a unified formal way, using lattice theory
as the one basic concept. Further, he also demonstrates that the
lattice-based approach to information retrieval allows us to
formulate new retrieval methods.
SAndor Dominicha (TM)s presentation is characterized by an
engineering-like approach, describing all methods and technologies
with as much mathematics as needed for clarity and exactness. His
readers in both computer science and mathematics will learn how one
single concept can be used to understand the most important
retrieval methods, to propose new ones, and also to gain new
insights into retrieval modeling in general. Thus, his book is
appropriate for researchers and graduate students, who will
additionally benefit from the many exercises at the end of each
chapter.
