Similarity calculations and document ranking form the computationally expensive parts of query processing in ranking-based text retrieval. In this work, for these calculations, 11...
This paper presents a new use of the Curvelet transform as a multiscale method for indexing linear singularities and curved handwritten shapes in documents images. As it belongs t...
We propose a method of classifying XML documents and extracting XML schema from XML by inductive inference based on constraint logic programming. The goal of this work is to type ...
Ranking search results is a fundamental problem in information retrieval. In this paper we explore whether the use of proximity and phrase information can improve web retrieval ac...
We demonstrate the merits of using inter-document similarities for federated search. Specifically, we study a resultsmerging method that utilizes information induced from cluster...
