We present a new method for information retrieval using hidden Markov models HMMs and relate our experience with this system on the TREC-7 ad hoc task. We develop a general framew...
Due to the great variation of biological names in biomedical text, appropriate tokenization is an important preprocessing step for biomedical information retrieval. Despite its im...
Probabilistic Argumentation Systems (PAS) are a technique for representing uncertainty both symbolically and numerically. It is shown that this technique, which combines symbolic ...
Abstract When searching for information about historical events, queries are naturally formulated using temporal constraints. However, the structured temporal information needed to...
