Using Terms from Citations for IR: Some First Results
We present the results of experiments using terms from citations for scientific literature search. To index a given document, we use terms used by citing documents to describe that document, in combination with terms from the document itself. We find that the combination of terms gives better retrieval performance than standard indexing of the document terms alone and present a brief analysis of our results. This paper marks the first experimental results from a new test collection of scientific papers, created by us in order to study citation-based methods for IR.
