Read the passage given below, and
answer the questions based on your
understanding of the passage.
(Question Nos. 46-50)
One of the problems with
automatic classification techniques is
that they normally involve
processing the whole collection in
response to every request; this is
inefficient, because we know in
advance that a substantial part of the
collection will not be relevant to the
request. One of the major objectives
of an information retrieval system is
to allow the user to discard with the
minimum of effort any items not
relevant to an enquiry. Classification
schemes set out to achieve this by
grouping items according to
specified characteristics; provided
that our specification meets the
user’s needs, this grouping will be
helpful, but if it does not, our
organization of information may
prove to be a positive hindrance
instead of a help. There has been a
substantial amount of research into
computer techniques which would
achieve the same end, by reducing
the size of the collection to be
searched in response to any given
request.
The classical Aristotelian
definition of classification states that
a class consists of a set of objects
having a given characteristic in
common, possession of that
characteristic being a necessary and
sufficient condition for class
membership. A document may be
described by a number of terms,
derived or assigned, and that we
expect to retrieve in answer to a
request a set of documents which
match the request closely but rarely
exactly. This arises because the

terms used to describe documents
fall into a number of classes, and we
can never be exhaustive in our
characterization. In other words, we
hope to retrieve a set of documents
which maximizes the match between
the query and the description of the
classes into which the desired
documents fall, without expecting
the match to be exact in classical
terms. Aristotelian classification
assumes a single essential element;
documentary classification assumes
that related document will share a
number of elements, without
necessarily having all of those
specified in a particular query.
46. One of the problems of automatic
classification is that :
(A) It does not process the whole
collection to answer a query.
(B) It processes the part collection
to answer a query.
(C) It processes the whole
collection to answer a query.
(D) The substantial part of the
processed collection will be
relevant.
47. One of the major objectives of an IR
system is
(A) To help the user to express
their actual need.
(B) To help the user to discard
irrelevant items with the
minimum effort.
(C) To help the user not to discard
irrelevant items with the
minimum effort.
(D) To help the user to maximize
their effort to locate an
irrelevant item.
48. What does the research in computer
techniques aim at ?
(A) To increase the size of the
collection to be searched not in
response to any given request.
(B) To increase the size of the
collection to be searched in
response to any given request.
(C) To reduce the size of the
collection to be searched in
response to any given request.
(D) To reduce the size of the
collection to be searched not in
response to any given request.
49. Aristotelian definition of
classification states that :
(A) No class should have common
characteristics.
(B) A class should consist of a set
of common terms.
(C) A class should consist of
related common
characteristics.
(D) A class should consist of a set
of objects having a given
characteristic in common.
50. Documentary classification assumes
that
(A) A single element is essential.
(B) Related documents will share a
number of elements having all
those specified in a particular
query.
(C) Related documents will share a
number of elements, without
necessarily having all those
specified in a particular query.
(D) Documents should have a
number of elements.
