  abstract = {This paper describes an information retrieval system with the function to support user's use of the  retrieved documents using the text-level structure of documents. The text-level structure of each  document is described by the occurrence of typical functional components in the text. Automatic  detection of the components has been attempted in previous works using surface-level language  processing. The proposed system firstly utilizes the text structure to conduct high-precision searches of  documents or passages by distinguishing the role or function each concept plays in the text. It also allows  browsing or skimming of retrieved texts, creating summaries on-the-fly with various levels of  condensation specified by the user. Moreover, the system can search and display any unit of a text such  as a sentence, a paragraph or a chapter. Comparison of relevant passages in retrieved documents across  multiple texts is helpful for users to examine, analyze, compare and integrate texts and...},
