Abstract(in English) Queries used to obtain the same retrieval result may be different if they are created by different users. This difference of queries affects the information retrieval accuracy. In this paper, it is examined that how the difference of queries affects the retrieval accuracy of Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI), a vector information retrieval method. In LSI, queries and retrieval candidates are vectorized. Information retrieval is performed by calculating the resemblance between the vectors of queries and retrieval candidates, and ranking the retrieval candidates based on the calculated result. By using LSI, the deterioration of the retrieval accuracy caused by the semantic ambiguity of keywords is held. In this reason, LSI is noticed for the application to the document retrieval and cross-language information retrieval. In this paper, a dynamic keyword definition method is proposed, which simulates the difference of users. Experiments are carried out by using the proposed method to verify the effect of the difference of queries on the retrieval accuracy of LSI. Based on the experimental results, the change patterns of the retrieval accuracy, which are affected by the difference of queries, are clarified.
