This paper aims to provide a radical rundown on Conversation Search
(ConvSearch), an approach to enhance the information retrieval method where
users engage in a dialogue for the information-seeking tasks. In this survey,
we predominantly focused on the human interactive characteristics of the
ConvSearch systems, highlighting the operations of the action modules, likely
the Retrieval system, Question-Answering, and Recommender system. We labeled
various ConvSearch research problems in knowledge bases, natural language
processing, and dialogue management systems along with the action modules. We
further categorized the framework to ConvSearch and the application is directed
toward biomedical and healthcare fields for the utilization of clinical social
technology. Finally, we conclude by talking through the challenges and issues
of ConvSearch, particularly in Bio-Medicine. Our main aim is to provide an
integrated and unified vision of the ConvSearch components from different
fields, which benefit the information-seeking process in healthcare systems.
