Relevance feedback has been demonstrated to be an effective strategy for improving retrieval accuracy. The existing relevance feedback algorithms based on language models and vect...
In Cross-Language Information Retrieval (CLIR), Out-of-Vocabulary (OOV) detection and translation pair relevance evaluation still remain as key problems. In this paper, an English...
: This paper proposes the notion of problem templates (PTs), a concept based on theories of memory and expertise. These mental constructs allow experts to quickly recognise problem...
There has been recent interest in collecting user or assessor preferences, rather than absolute judgments of relevance, for the evaluation or learning of ranking algorithms. Since...
Among the various types of semantic concepts modeled, events pose the greatest challenge in terms of computational power needed to represent the event and accuracy that can be ach...
