Abstract

Subtopic mining is the extraction and ranking of possible subtopics, which disambiguate and specify the search intentions of an input query in terms of relevance, popularity, and diversity. This paper describes the limitations of previous studies on the utilization of web resources, and proposes a subtopic mining method with a two-level hierarchy based on hierarchical search intentions and web resources, in order to overcome these limitations. Considering the characteristics of resources provided by the official subtopic mining task, we extract various second-level subtopics reflecting hierarchical search intentions from web documents, and expand and re-rank them using other provided resources. Terms in subtopics with wider search intentions are used to generate first-level subtopics. Our method performed better than state-of-the-art methods in almost every aspect.
