This paper addresses the issue of devising a new document prior for the language modeling (LM) approach for Information Retrieval. The prior is based on term statistics, derived in...
Song and Bruza [6] introduce a framework for Information Retrieval(IR) based on Gardenfor’s three tiered cognitive model; Conceptual Spaces[4]. They instantiate a conceptual spa...
Information retrieval algorithms leverage various collection statistics to improve performance. Because these statistics are often computed on a relatively small evaluation corpus...
