In orthogonal range reporting we are to preprocess N points in d-dimensional space so that the points inside a d-dimensional axis-aligned query box can be reported efficiently. T...
Paraphrasing van Rijsbergen [37], the time is ripe for another attempt at using natural language processing (NLP) for information retrieval (IR). This paper introduces my disserta...
This paper describes an efficient algorithm for computing the distance between non-convex objects. Objects are modeled as the union of a set of convex components. From this model ...
We previously presented a fault localization technique called Value Replacement that repeatedly alters the state of an executing program to locate a faulty statement [9]. The tech...
In this paper we report on our natural language information retrieval (NLIR) project as related to the recently concluded 5th Text Retrieval Conference (TREC-5). The main thrust o...
