A trust oriented next-hop selection in Ad hoc Network by using Multiple Fuzzy

Abstract: Information Retrieval (IR) is concerned with indexing and retrieving documents including information relevant to a user�s information need. Relevance Feedback (RF) is a class of effective algorithms for improving Information Retrieval (IR) and it consists of gathering further data representing the user�s information need and automatically creating a new query. In this paper, we propose a class of RF algorithms inspired by quantum detection to re-weight the query terms and to re-rank the document retrieved by an IR system. These algorithms project the query vector on a subspace spanned by the eigenvector which maximizes the distance between the distribution of quantum probability of relevance and the distribution of quantum probability of non-relevance. The experiments showed that the RF algorithms inspired by quantum detection can outperform the state-of-the-art algorithms.

Keywords: Information retrieval, Relevance Feedback, query vector.
