Common approach: Use the SVD<br />

➤ Need to extract intrinsic information – or underlying “semantic”<br />

information –<br />

➤ LSI: replace A by a low rank approximation [from SVD]<br />

A = UΣV T → Ak = UkΣkV T<br />

k<br />

➤ Uk : term space, Vk: document space.<br />

➤ New similarity vector: sk = A T k q = VkΣkU T k<br />

➤ Main issues: 1) computational cost 2) Updates<br />
