Higher order spatial features, such as doublets or
triplets have been used to incorporate spatial information
into the bag-of-local-features model. Due to computational
limits, ...
This paper presents two sentence retrieval methods. We adopt the task definition done in the TREC Novelty Track: sentence retrieval consists in the extraction of the relevant sente...
In this paper, we reveal a common deficiency of the current retrieval models: the component of term frequency (TF) normalization by document length is not lower-bounded properly;...
We propose a mathematical approach for quantifying shape complexity of 3D surfaces based on perceptual principles of visual saliency. Our curvature variation measure (CVM), as a 3...

This paper presents a new pooling method for constructing the assessment sets used in the evaluation of retrieval systems. Our proposal is based on RankBoost, a machine learning v...
