This paper presents a probabilistic information retrieval framework in which the retrieval problem is formally treated as a statistical decision problem. In this framework, querie...
A maximum-entropy approach to generative similarity-based classifiers model is proposed. First, a descriptive set of similarity statistics is assumed to be sufficient for classifi...
Recent syntactic extensions of statistical translation models work with a synchronous context-free or tree-substitution grammar extracted from an automatically parsed parallel cor...
Online advertising is increasingly becoming more performance oriented, where the decision to show an advertisement to a user is made based on the user’s propensity to respond to...
