Preference structure, inference and set-oriented retrieval

In this paper, a framework for modeling information retrieval is introduced by coml)ining the salient features of many inference-bad and set-orient,ed retrieval models. The degrees of relevance of different subsets of clocumeuts are inferred from the user preference judgments on subsets of
