Adapting the Multilingual Information Retrieval System MIMOR to the Characteristics of Japanese
(2005)
This M.A. thesis describes the conception and realization of a cross-lingual information retrieval system for Japanese based on the MIMOR (“Mehrfachindexierung zur dynamischen Methoden-Objekt-Relationierung im Information Retrieval”) framework. After an analysis of the characteristics of Japanese and their implications for IR, an overview of established approaches and the state-of-the art in Japanese IR and crosslingual IR with Japanese is provided. It is followed by a description of the implemented system and its integration into the existing framework. Finally, the evaluation experiments carried out with two different document genres (newspaper articles and scientific abstracts) are reported. The main focus hereby was on the testing and analysis of different indexing strategies, in particular a yomi- or pronunciation-based index in addition to conventional word-based and n-gram-based indices, and the benefits of their fusion.
