Abstract. In order to be useful, intelligent information retrieval agents must provide their users with context-relevant information. This paper presents WordSieve, an algorithm fo...
Recent work in supervised learning of term-based retrieval models has shown significantly improved accuracy can often be achieved via better model estimation [2, 10, 11, 17]. In ...
With the goal of reducing computational costs without sacrificing accuracy, we describe two algorithms to find sets of prototypes for nearest neighbor classification. Here, the te...
Background: Recent progress in cDNA and EST sequencing is yielding a deluge of sequence data. Like database search results and proteome databases, this data gives rise to inferred...
