User modeling for information retrieval has mostly been studied to improve the effectiveness of information access in centralized repositories. In this paper we explore user model...
Reverse skyline queries over uncertain databases have many important applications such as sensor data monitoring and business planning. Due to the existence of uncertainty in many...
We examine the issues of combining multiple query representations in a single IR engine. Differing query representations are used to retrieve different documents. Thus, when combi...

Distributed information retrieval is a well-known approach for accessing heterogeneous, highly autonomous sources of unstructured information. Selecting and querying only a number ...
In this paper, several effective learning algorithms using global image representations are adjusted and introduced to region-based image retrieval (RBIR). First, the query point m...
