Whether to store the term pair is determined based on the recall gain, the expansion independence, and the semantic similarity. The term pair is stored based on the determination. Methods and systems are provided for searching using an adaptive thesaurus. A search query including a query term is received. An expansion term stored in association with an index term matching the query term in the adaptive thesaurus is retrieved.
