Everett, Daniel M.; Cater, Steven C.
Journal of the American Society for Information Science, v43 n10 p658-73 Dec 1992
Explains the use of a topological structure to examine the closeness between documents in retrieval systems and analyzes the topological structure of a vector-space model, a fuzzy-set model, an extended Boolean model, a probabilistic model, and a TIRS (Topological Information Retrieval System) model. Proofs for the results are appended. (17 references) (LRW)
