It is becoming increasingly common in information retrieval to combine evidence from multiple resources to compute the retrieval status value of documents. Although this has led to...
We propose a Web recommendation system based on a maximum entropy model. Under the maximum entropy principle, we can combine multiple levels of knowledge about users’ navigation...
Web users display their preferences implicitly by navigating through a sequence of pages or by providing numeric ratings to some items. Web usage mining techniques are used to ext...
This paper provides evidence for Genzel and Charniak's (2002) entropy rate principle, which predicts that the entropy of a sentence increases with its position in the text. W...
Maximum entropy analysis of binary variables provides an elegant way for studying the role of pairwise correlations in neural populations. Unfortunately, these approaches suffer f...
