It is becoming increasingly common in information retrieval to combine evidence from multiple resources to compute the retrieval status value of documents. Although this has led to...
Measuring the similarity between documents and queries has been extensively studied in information retrieval. However, there are a growing number of tasks that require computing th...
This paper presents an iterative and interactive information retrieval system to search on the web using formal concept analysis (FCA). FCA provides a natural way to organise objec...
Thanks to the continuous growth of collaborative platforms like YouTube, Flickr and Delicious, we are recently witnessing to a rapid evolution of web dynamics towards a more `soci...

Effective information retrieval is important not only for its own sake but also for improving our understanding and allowing us to evolve our information into knowledge and wisdom...
In professional environments which are characterized by a domain (Medicine, Law, etc.), information retrieval systems must be able to process precise queries, mostly because of the...
We describe a baseline system for the VideoCLEF Vid2RSS task. The system uses an unaltered off-the-shelf Information Retrieval system. ASR content is indexed using default stemmin...
Information Retrieval systems are limited by the linguistic variation of language. The use of Natural Language Processing techniques to manage this problem has been studied for a ...
