In this paper we propose an innovative Information Retrieval system able to manage temporal information. The system allows temporal constraints in a classical keyword-based search. Information about temporal events is automatically extracted from text at indexing time and stored in an ad-hoc data structure exploited by the retrieval module for searching relevant documents. Our system can search textual information that refers to specific period of times. We perform an exploratory case study indexing all Italian Wikipedia articles.

Abstract

In this paper we propose an innovative Information Retrieval system able to manage temporal information. The system allows temporal constraints in a classical keyword-based search. Information about temporal events is automatically extracted from text at indexing time and stored in an ad-hoc data structure exploited by the retrieval module for searching relevant documents. Our system can search textual information that refers to specific period of times. We perform an exploratory case study indexing all Italian Wikipedia articles.
