Abstract:
Today, vast amounts of information are
available electronically through the World-Wide-
Web (www). Information Retrieval is one of the
retrieval systems which is browsing through
documents and searching for specific information.
There are many retrieval models referred to as
extended Boolean models such as fuzzy set model,
Waller-Kraft, Paice, P-norm and Infinite-One
model.
These models provide a ranking of the retrieved
documents in order of decreasing relevance to the
query. This system intends to implement an
information retrieval system using Extended
Boolean Model. P-norm scheme of Extended
Boolean Model is used in this system. And the
system is implemented for searching job. To
calculate similarity, term weight of the document
and query weight are calculated first. Then the
terms of document are checked depending on the
user query and similarities are calculated
according to the P-norm scheme. As a result, the
relevant job information according to user's
preference is displayed to user. This system is
implemented by using Microsoft SQL server and
C# programming.
