The ability of fast similarity search at large scale is of great importance to many Information Retrieval (IR) applications. A promising way to accelerate similarity search is sem...
In this paper we present HearSay, a system for browsing hypertext Web documents via audio. The HearSay system is based on our novel approach to automatically creating audio browsa...
New devices gaining access to the Internet need to obtain multimedia content adapted to their limited capacities. Scalable formats allow to retrieve different versions of a single...
We present an incremental algorithm for building a neighborhood graph from a set of documents. This algorithm is based on a population of artificial agents that imitate the way re...
We examine the issues of combining multiple query representations in a single IR engine. Differing query representations are used to retrieve different documents. Thus, when combi...
