Conventional approaches to image retrieval are based on the assumption that relevant images are physically near the query image in some feature space. This is the basis of the clu...
This paper reports on experiments submitted for the robust task at CLEF 2007. We applied a system previously tested for ad-hoc retrieval. Experiments were focused on the effect of...
The effectiveness of information retrieval systems is measured by comparing performance on a common set of queries and documents. Significance tests are often used to evaluate the...
We study the evaluation of opinion retrieval systems. Opinion retrieval is a relatively new research area, nevertheless classical evaluation measures, those adopted for ad hoc ret...
