Using Dirac Notation as a powerful tool, we investigate the three classical Information Retrieval (IR) models and some their extensions. We show that almost all such models can be...
Semantic understanding of multimedia content is critical in enabling effective access to all forms of digital media data. By making large media repositories searchable, semantic ...
In this paper, we propose a semantic-meaningful approach for region-based image retrieval in image database. Our retrieval system is based on wavelet transform for its decompositi...
Abstract. This work proposes a family of language-independent semantic kernel functions defined for individuals in an ontology. This allows exploiting wellfounded kernel methods fo...
Web track results are presented. A software project, IRTools, is described. IRTools is intended to enable information retrieval (IR) experimentation by incorporating methods for m...
