Evaluating the Potential of Explicit Phrases for Retrieval Quality
This paper evaluates the potential impact of explicit phrases on retrieval quality through a case study with the TREC Terabyte benchmark. It compares the performance of user- and system-identified phrases with a standard score and a proximity-aware score, and shows that an optimal choice of phrases, including term permutations, can significantly improve query performance.
