Real measurements in high-speed communications networks have recently shown that traffic may demonstrate properties of long-range dependency peculiar to self-similar stochastic pr...
We analyse the kinematics of probabilistic term weights at retrieval time for di erent Information Retrieval models. We present four models based on di erent notions of probabilis...
Combining probability and first-order logic has been the subject of intensive research during the last ten years. The most well-known formalisms combining probability and some sub...
A known limitation of the Probability Ranking Principle (PRP) is that it does not cater for dependence between documents. Recently, the Quantum Probability Ranking Principle (QPRP)...
Compiling Bayesian networks (BNs) is one of the hot topics in the area of probabilistic modeling and processing. In this paper, we propose a new method of compiling BNs into multi...
