    Abstract
    A thesaurus may be viewed as a graph, and document retrieval algorithms can exploit this graph when both the documents and the query are represented by thesaurus terms. These retrieval algorithms measure the distance between the query and documents by using the path lengths in the graph. Previous work witj such strategies has shown that the hierarchical relations in the thesaurus are useful but the non-hierarchical are not. This paper shows that when the query explicitly mentions a particular non-hierarchical relation, the retrieval algorithm benefits from the presence of such relations in the thesaurus. Our algorithms were applied to the Excerpta Medica bibliographic citation database whose citations are indexed with terms from the EMTREE thesaurus. We also created an enriched EMTREE by systematically adding non-hierarchical relations from a medical knowledge base. Our algorithms used at one time EMTREE and, at another time, the enriched EMTREE in the course of ranking documents from Excerpta Medica against queries. When, and only when, the query specifically mentioned a particular non-hierarchical relation type, did EMTREE enriched with that relation type lead to a ranking that better corresponded to an expert's ranking

    Abstract
    Unfamiliarity with search tactics creates difficulties for many users of online retrieval systems. User observations indicate that even experienced searchers use vocabulary incorrectly and rarely reformulate their queries. To address these problems, an expert system for online search assistance was developed. This prototype automatically reformulates queries to improve the search results, and ranks the retrieved passages to speed the identification of relevant information. User's search performance using the expert system was compared with their search performance using an online thesaurus. The following conclusions were reached: (1) the expert system significantly reduced the number of queries necessary to find relevant passages compared with the user searching alone or with the thesaurus. (2) The expert system produced marginally significant improvements in precision compared with the user searching on their own. There was no significant difference in the recall achieved by the three system configurations. (3) Overall, the expert system ranked relevant passages above irrelevant passages

    Abstract
    Queries containing negation are widely recognised as presenting problems for both users and systems. In information retrieval systems such problems usually manifest themselves in the use of the NOT operator. Describes an algorithm to transform Boolean queries with negated terms into queries without negation; the transformation process is based on the use of a hierarchical thesaurus. Examines a set of user requests submitted to the Thomas Cooper Library at the University of South Carolina to determine the pattern and frequency of use of negation.
