In Information Retrieval (IR), the Dirichlet Priors have been applied to the smoothing technique of the language modeling approach. In this paper, we apply the Dirichlet Priors to...
This paper proposes GBM (gravitation-based model), a physical model for information retrieval inspired by Newton’s theory of gravitation. A mapping is built in this model from c...
Many applications in structure matching require the ability to search for graphs that are similar to a query graph, i.e., similarity graph queries. Prior works, especially in chem...
The Internet and corporate intranets provide far more information than anybody can absorb. People use search engines to find the information they require. However, these systems t...
The retrieval performance of an information retrieval system usually increases when it uses the relationships among the terms contained in a given document collection. However, th...
