We present a comprehensive model for quantitative evaluation and comparison of search engines. The model is based on the LSP method for system evaluation. The basic contribution of...
Modeling the beyond-topical aspects of relevance are currently gaining popularity in IR evaluation. For example, the discounted cumulated gain (DCG) measure implicitly models some...
Software design models are routinely adapted to domains, companies, and applications. This requires customizable consistency checkers that allow engineers to dynamically adapt mode...
Spectral voice conversion is usually performed using a single model selected in order to represent a tradeoff between goodness of fit and complexity. Recently, we proposed a new ...
