Ontology-based semantic retrieval of documents using Word2vec model

Abstract

Semantic retrieval of engineering knowledge is crucial in various engineering activities, such as process development and product model planning. To make a solution for this issue, previously, a few word-based semantic enabling existing approaches such as Lexical Retrieval Model with Semantic Residual Embedding’s (LR-SRE), Document Retrieval Model through Semantic Linking (DR-MTS), Semantic Term Matching in Axiomatic Approaches to Information Retrieval (STM-IR) and Hybrid Ontology for Semantic Information Retrieval Model using Keyword Matching Indexing System (HOS-IR) were utilized. But, they all have shown less query-based accuracy results than the required value. In our proposed Information Retrieval (IR) design, the semantic knowledge-based retrieval scheme has been implemented. For query, entered by a user and processed for finding the dominated word. Word is then compared for its similarity equations, and similarity values are then computed to give output. Highly similar values are obtained as the class value. From class, the respective clusters are selected. Then, documents in that cluster are retrieved and ranked according to the relevance of the user. To support the accuracy level performance of this IR system, a word2vec model has been employed with the benefits of Horse Herd Optimization (HHO), which helps to extract vectors as features for classification. These results are stored as a .csv file for further retrieval. By implementing the proposed IR-word2vec model, the results showed that it outperforms other existing techniques by improved similarity index and accuracy for query results in an execution time of 1.7 s.
