We report on the results of a series of experiments with a prototype text retrieval system which uses relatively advanced natural language processing techniques in order to enhanc...
The ability to deliver appropriate information to learners at the most appropriate time is an essential component of good instruction. In the best learning environments, this info...
When search results against digital libraries and web resources have limited metadata, augmenting them with meaningful and stable category information can enable better overviews ...
Using the same interactive IR component as for TREC 2006, this submission probed the ability of a user without requisite domain knowledge to interactively set appropriate weights....
We analyse the kinematics of probabilistic term weights at retrieval time for di erent Information Retrieval models. We present four models based on di erent notions of probabilis...
