We present BAYESUM (for "Bayesian summarization"), a model for sentence extraction in query-focused summarization. BAYESUM leverages the common case in which multiple do...
Abstract. Colored range queries are a well-studied topic in computational geometry and database research that, in the past decade, have found exciting applications in information r...
Agent systems that search the Semantic Web are seen as killer applications for description logic (DL) inference engines. The guiding examples for the Semantic Web involve informat...
Cross-language retrieval systems use queries in one natural language to guide retrieval of documents that might be written in another. Acquisition and representation of translation...
