We show that the complexity of the recently introduced medoid-shift algorithm in clustering N points is O(N2 ), with a small constant, if the underlying distance is Euclidean. This...
Taking advantage of the well-known cluster hypothesis that “closely associated documents tend to be relevant to the same request”, we can use inter-document similarity to prov...
Ranking blog posts that express opinions regarding a given topic should serve a critical function in helping users. We explored a couple of methods for opinion retrieval in the fr...
