The retrieval performance of an information retrieval system usually increases when it uses the relationships among the terms contained in a given document collection. However, th...
In recent years, some computer vision algorithms such as SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) have been employed in image similarity match to perform image-based search applic...
This paper presents a new pooling method for constructing the assessment sets used in the evaluation of retrieval systems. Our proposal is based on RankBoost, a machine learning v...
Abstract This paper presents a method for combining query-relevance with information-novelty in the context of text retrieval and summarization. The Maximal Marginal Relevance (MMR...
Fast retrieval of images from large databases especially from large medical image databases is of great interest to researchers. We have developed shape-based image retrieval syst...
