Method and apparatus for document filtering capable of efficiently extracting document matching to searcher's intention using learning data

摘要

A document filtering apparatus includes an information input/output unit, a search word extraction unit, a first ranking search unit, a learning data unit, a classifying parameter generation unit, a second ranking search unit, and a classifying unit. The information input/output unit inputs phrasal information, and outputs search result information. The search word extraction unit extracts a search word from the phrasal information. The first ranking search unit searches a document having the search word from a database, and outputs a first ranking search result. The learning data unit prepares learning data from the first ranking search result. The classifying parameter generation unit generates a classifying parameter from the learning data. The second ranking search unit searches a document having a word corresponding to the classifying parameter from the database. The classifying unit extracts a document matching to a searcher's intention, and outputs the document as a second ranking search result.
