Dear all,
I have some questions regarding the MLLM algorithm. More specifically, I am interested in the additional indexes based on SKOS concepts. From reading through the wiki page description on MLLM I understand that these additional indexes (step 2) are transformed into numerical features and thus are solely used for improving results based on the set of candidates from matching document terms to the term index (step 1).
Can semantically related terms be suggested with this backend as well? Here is an example: If a document matches terms A and B and both of them have a SKOS:broader(/SKOS:related/SKOS:narrower) concept C, is it possible for C to be a keyword suggested by MLLM (even if C does not occur in the document itself)?
In addition to this: Are there any differences in the way the algorithm deals with different types of relationships (e.g. SKOS:broader vs. SKOS:narrower)?
Thanks in advance and Best,
Sophie
