Keyphrase Extraction Algorithms • Heuristic, Syntactic, Machine Learning • Requires prior training • Heuristic cut-off thresholds in number of phrases • Focuses on single document • Redundancy when aggregated for the whole document collection

Keyphrase Extraction with MOGA • Optimize phrase selection with MOGA (cont.) • Model & Genetic Operators (cont.) • Evaluation fitness functions • Minimize clustering measure / dispersion (Bookstein ’98) • Minimize number of phrases • Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA-II) Mutation 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0
Experiment and Results • Data set 34 papers from Design Theory and Methodology Conference ’01 • Candidate phrases ~5000 noun phrases extracted • Genetic Algorithm Parameters • Population size 100 • Converges at 5000 generations • 5 hours on Xeon 1.8GHz CPU

Evaluation • 6 domain experts participated in the evaluation. • Core phrases vs. Non-core phrases. • Less than 10% are deemed irrelevant. • Significant deviation between evaluators.
Conclusion • Keyphrase extraction can be successfully implemented as a multi-objective global optimization problem. • Reasonably good keyphrases can be extracted without prior training or domain knowledge. • Trade-off information between objectives such as number of phrases vs. average quality of phrases can be gained from Pareto solutions. • Preferences can be made based on the user needs and trade-off information.
Future Research • Test on larger text collection. • Implement extracted keyphrases in IR system as browsing and query expansion tool and compare to full-text search IR system. • Evaluate with more raters and 1-5 scale. • Build domain thesauri with extracted keyphrases and semantic discovery algorithms (e.g. Latent Semantic Analysis).
