Query ambiguity is a generally recognized problem, particularly in Web environments where queries are commonly only one or two words in length. In this study, we explore one techn...
Recently, the wide deployment of practical face recognition systems gives rise to the emergence of the inter-modality face recognition problem. In this problem, the face images in ...
We build a probabilistic model to identify implicit local intent queries, and leverage user’s physical location to improve Web search results for these queries. Evaluation on co...
We present a unified approach to locality optimization that employs both data and control transformations. Data transformations include changing the array layout in memory. Contr...
Recent data stream systems such as TelegraphCQ have employed the well-known property of duality between data and queries. In these systems, query processing methods are classified...
