Modeling expert finding as an absorbing random walk
We introduce a novel approach to expert finding based on multi-step relevance propagation from documents to related candidates. Relevance propagation is modeled with an absorbing ...

Fast query execution for retrieval models based on path-constrained random walks
Many recommendation and retrieval tasks can be represented as proximity queries on a labeled directed graph, with typed nodes representing documents, terms, and metadata, and labe...

Fondazione Ugo Bordoni at TREC 2003: Robust and Web Track
Our participation in TREC 2003 aims to adapt the use of the DFR (Divergence From Randomness) models with Query Expansion (QE) to the robust track and the topic distillation task o...

A study of the dirichlet priors for term frequency normalisation
In Information Retrieval (IR), the Dirichlet Priors have been applied to the smoothing technique of the language modeling approach. In this paper, we apply the Dirichlet Priors to...

Tracking the random surfer: empirically measured teleportation parameters in PageRank
PageRank computes the importance of each node in a directed graph under a random surfer model governed by a teleportation parameter. Commonly denoted alpha, this parameter models ...
