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...
Abstract. Parameter estimation of large bio-pathway models is an important and difficult problem. To reduce the prohibitive computational cost, one approach is to decompose a large...

Document fields, such as the title or the headings of a document, offer a way to consider the structure of documents for retrieval. Most of the proposed approaches in the literatu...
Humans know how to reason based on cause and effect, but cause and effect is not enough to draw conclusions due to the problem of imperfect information and uncertainty. To resol...
It has already been shown how Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) can be incorporated into probabilistic models. In this paper we review some of the approaches which have been prop...
