Cluster-Based Information Retrieval by using (K-means)- Hierarchical Parallel Genetic Algorithms Approach
share
Cluster-based information retrieval is one of the Information retrieval(IR) tools that organize, extract features and categorize the web documents according to their similarity. Unlike traditional approaches, cluster-based IR is fast in processing large datasets of document. To improve the quality of retrieved documents, increase the efficiency of IR and reduce irrelevant documents from user search. in this paper, we proposed a (K-means) - Hierarchical Parallel Genetic Algorithms Approach (HPGA) that combines the K-means clustering algorithm with hybrid PG of multi-deme and master/slave PG algorithms. K-means uses to cluster the population to k subpopulations then take most clusters relevant to the query to manipulate in a parallel way by the two levels of genetic parallelism, thus, irrelevant documents will not be included in subpopulations, as a way to improve the quality of results. Three common datasets (NLP, CISI, and CACM) are used to compute the recall, precision, and F-measure averages. Finally, we compared the precision values of three datasets with Genetic-IR and classic-IR. The proposed approach precision improvements with IR-GA were 45 NLP. While, by comparing with Classic-IR, (k-means)-HPGA got 47 in CISI, and 34
