Progress in Information Retrieval: An Extensive Analysis
Abstract
Information Retrieval (IR) has witnessed significant advancements in recent years, driven by the explosion of digital data and the growing complexity of information sources. This review article provides a comprehensive overview of key developments in Information Retrieval, focusing on novel techniques, emerging technologies, and their impact on various applications. From traditional IR models to the integration of machine learning and semantic search, this review explores the evolution of retrieval systems. Additionally, it examines the challenges posed by multimedia content and the increasing importance of personalized search. The article concludes by addressing current challenges, including privacy and bias concerns, and outlines potential future directions for the field, such as the integration of explainable AI and the exploration of quantum computing in information retrieval tasks. This review aims to serve as a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and enthusiasts seeking insights into the dynamic and rapidly evolving landscape of Information Retrieval.
