Abstract

The process of getting the semantic information out of vast text data available is not easy. Many of the recent work on Intelligent Information Retrieval (IIR) dealt with usage of natural language processing (NLP), but the results were not so encouraging. Even currently applicable state-of-the-art NLP gives only moderate results when used in document retrieval systems. Firstly, this research paper addresses the key issues that occur when incorporating NLP techniques in IIR. We look in detail, what are the causes of issues. Then we propose some solutions to tackle with these issues, for getting better IIR system outputs.
