Abstract. We investigate the potential of coherence-based scores to predict query difficulty. The coherence of a document set associated with each query word is used to capture the...
In this paper we propose a new routing policy to route jobs to clusters in computational grids. This routing policy is based on index tables computed at each cluster. These tables...
Abstract. Many tasks (e.g., search and summarization) result in an ordered list of items. In order to evaluate such an ordered list of items, we need to compare it with an ideal or...
