Abstract: Information retrieval systems typically weight the importance of search terms according to document and collection statistics (such as by using tf \Theta idf scores, where less common terms are given higher weight). We consider here the scenario where a user can express her own subjective weighting of the importance of the terms that form the query on top of the systemgenerated weighting, and show how this should modify the relevance scores of documents. This has been allowed before, but... (Update)

...distance function as a universal solution cannot satisfy all users. To address this issue, some systems, such as MARS [13] and Garlic [14,15], have adapted query expansion models, which can simulate a customized distance function for each user by weighting the relative...
.... However, soft constraints considering weights in user queries, have been in use in several domains, such as information searching [5][7]. In [7] absolute weights, concerning individual terms, and relative weights, concerning a relation between terms, may be used. Fredo...
