    Abstract
    Fast, effective, and adaptable techniques are needed to automatically organize and retrieve information an the ever-increasing World Wide Web. In that respect, different strategies have been suggested to take hypertext links into account. For example, hyperlinks have been used to (1) enhance document representation, (2) improve document ranking by propagating document score, (3) provide an indicator of popularity, and (4) find hubs and authorities for a given topic. Although the TREC experiments have not demonstrated the usefulness of hyperlinks for retrieval, the hypertext structure is nevertheless an essential aspect of the Web, and as such, should not be ignored. The development of abstract models of the IR task was a key factor to the improvement of search engines. However, at this time conceptual tools for modeling the hypertext retrieval task are lacking, making it difficult to compare, improve, and reason an the existing techniques. This article proposes a general model for using hyperlinks based an Probabilistic Argumentation Systems, in which each of the above-mentioned techniques can be stated. This model will allow to discover some inconsistencies in the mentioned techniques, and to take a higher level and systematic approach for using hyperlinks for retrieval.

    Abstract
    The aim of probabilistic models is to define a retrieval strategy within which documents can be optimally ranked according to their relevance probability with respect to a given request. Presents a study which suggests representing documents not only by index term vendors, as proposed by previous probabilistic models but also by considering relevance hypertext links. To enhance retrieval effectiveness, the learning retrieval scheme should modify the weight assigned to each indexing terms, the importance attached to each search term, and the relationships between documents. Evaluation of the proposed retrieval scheme with a hypertext based on the CACM test collection which includes 3.204 documents and the CISI corpus (1,460 documents), yields interesting results on the retrieval effectiveness of this approach
