The traditional IR system stores term-specific statistics (typically
a term's frequency in each document - which we call TF) in an index.
Such a model ignores dependencies between terms and considers a
document's terms to occur independently of each other (and is aptly
called the bag-of-words model). In this paper the authors use a
statistic that uses a graph representation of a document to encode
dependencies between terms and replace the TF statistic with a new
TW statistic based on the graph constructed and achieve
significantly better results that popular existing models. This
paper won a honorable mention at CIKM 2013.
