Abstract: Approaches involving the representation of documents as a series of passages have been used in the past to improve the performance of ad-hoc retrieval systems. In this paper, we represent the top returned passages as a graph with each passage corresponding to a vertex. We connected the vertices (passages) that belongs to the same document to form a graph. The underlying intuition behind this approach is to identify some measure of the cohesiveness of the documents. We introduce a graph-based approach at the passage level to calculate the cohesion score of each document. The scores for both relevant and non-relevant documents are compared, and we illustrate that the cohesion score differs for relevant and non-relevant. Moreover, we also re-ranked the documents by applying the cohesion score with a document similarity score to inspect its impact on the system’s performance.
