Based on the idea that the closer the query terms in a document are, the more relevant this document is, we propose a mathematical model of information retrieval based on a fuzzy ...
Proximity of query terms in a document is an important criterion in IR. However, no investigation has been made to determine the most useful term sequences for which proximity sho...

The inability to answer proximity queries efficiently for spaces of dimension d > 2 has led to the study of approximation to proximity problems. Several techniques have been pro...

In this paper we investigate two aspects of ranking problems on large graphs. First, we augment the deterministic pruning algorithm in Sarkar and Moore (2007) with sampling techni...
—Authority flow and proximity search have been used extensively in measuring the association between entities in data graphs, ranging from the Web to relational and XML database...
