Abstract A method of integrating Boolean queries with probabilistic retrieval models is proposed. Boolean queries are interpreted as specifying term dependencies that can be used to correct the document scores obtained with a basic probabilistic model. Alternative methods of obtaining dependency information, such as user‐specified phrases, can also be used in this approach. The experimental results indicate that significant performance benefits can be obtained, particularly when dependencies are derived from term phrases identified in natural language queries. © 1986 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

A method is proposed of integrating Boolean queries with probabilistic retrieval models. Boolean queries are interpreted as specifying term dependencies that can be employed to correct the document scores obtained using a basic probabilistic model. In this approach, it is also possible to use alternative methods of obtaining dependency information such as user-specified phrases. To test the effectiveness of the proposed model, retrieval experiments were conducted with 2 collections of documents. Experimental results affirm that, using this new approach, significant performance benefits can be realized, particularly when dependencies are derived from term phrases identified in natural language queries. The experiments showed that incorporating term dependencies derived from queries in a probabilistic retrieval model can improve retrieval performance. The results also indicate that only part of the Boolean query structure is important for retrieval.
