● Explanation:
○ Assigns weights to terms based on their probability of
relevance to a search query. The idea is that some
terms are more likely to be relevant than others.
● Example:
○ In a search for "renewable energy," the term "solar"
might have a higher probability weight than "energy"
because it's more specific and relevant.

2.Vector Weighting
● Explanation:
○ Represents documents and queries as vectors in a
multi-dimensional space. The relevance is calculated
by measuring the angle or distance between the
vectors.
● Example:
○ Think of each term in a document as a dimension. A
search for "machine learning" would result in vectors
for each document. The document with a vector
closest to the query vector is considered most
relevant.
