Abstract:
This paper presents the novel ranking algorithm of the Coach Metathesaurus browser which is a major module of the Coach expert search refinement program. An example shows how the ranking algorithm can assist in creating a list of candidate terms useful in augmenting a suboptimal Grateful Med search of MEDLINE.
