We show that various duals that occur in optimization and constraint satisfaction can be classified as inference duals, relaxation duals, or both. We discuss linear programming, su...
In this paper, the automatic annotation task of the 2005 CLEF cross-language image retrieval campaign (ImageCLEF) is described. This paper focuses on the database used, the task s...
Learning to rank is a new statistical learning technology on creating a ranking model for sorting objects. The technology has been successfully applied to web search, and is becom...
