A Ranking Algorithm for Re-finding (1602.05157v2)

Published 16 Feb 2016 in cs.IR

Abstract: Re-finding files from a personal computer is a frequent demand to users. When encountered a difficult re-finding task, people may not recall the attributes used by conventional re-finding methods, such as a file's path, file name, keywords etc., the re-finding would fail. We proposed a method to support difficult re-finding tasks. By asking the user a list of questions about the target, such as a document's pages, author numbers, accumulated reading time, last reading location etc. Then use the user's answers to filter out the target. After the user answered a list of questions about the target file, we evaluate the user's familiar degree about the target file based on the answers. We devise a ranking algorithm which sorts the candidates by comparing the user's familiarity degree about the target and the candidates. We also propose a method to generate re-finding tasks artificially based on the user's own document corpus.
