Information retrieval:
Information retrieval is the process of accessing and retrieving relevant information from large
collections of data, typically stored electronically. It involves techniques and algorithms that
enable users to search for and retrieve specific documents, web pages, or other types of
information based on their query or keywords. Information retrieval systems utilize indexing,
ranking, and retrieval algorithms to efficiently locate and present relevant information to users,
enabling them to find the information they need quickly and effectively. Examples of
information retrieval systems include web search engines, document management systems, and
digital libraries.
