This paper proposes a graph-based retrieval technique on a weighted co-citation network, which allows users to find more relevant documents easily from the co-citation network. More specifically, the random walk with restart technique is applied to a weighted graph of documents, in which the degree of each edge weight is measured by the number of co-citation documents and the strength of the co-citation context; both obtained by parsing the full text of the citing documents. To evaluate its effectiveness empirically, a special test collection was created from the Open Access Subset of PubMed Central, and the search performance of the proposed method was compared with traditional co-citation searching by “precision at k.” The experimental results indicate that the proposed method tends to retrieve much more relevant documents without reducing precision.
