An Approach to Query-based Adaptation of Semi-structured Documents

2006

Abstract

Semi-structured documents are characterized by flexible and heterogeneous structure and content. So querying this type of documents is required to deliver easily relevant results. Despite the differences between users characteristics (interests, preferences, etc), they receive the same results delivered by the same query. So, in this paper we propose to integrate adaptation process in upstream of the querying step that consists in enriching user’s queries by user’s characteristics. The adaptation process aims to optimize the pertinence of results according to user requirements and offer users different results for his same query.
