Measuring effectiveness of information retrieval (IR) systems is essential for research and development and for monitoring search quality in dynamic environments. In this study, w...
The peer-to-peer (P2P) paradigm has emerged recently, mainly by file sharing systems like Napster or Gnutella and in terms of scalable distributed data structures. Because of the d...
This paper is about a better understanding on the structure and dynamics of science and the usage of these insights for compensating the typical problems that arises in metadata-d...
In the logical approach to information retrieval (IR), retrieval is considered as uncertain inference. Whereas classical IR models are based on propositional logic, we combine Dat...
