Searching is inherently an interactive process usually requiring numerous iterations of querying and assessing in order to find the desired amount of relevant information. Essent...
We present a fast technique for retrieving video clips using free-hand sketched queries. Visual keypoints within each video are detected and tracked to form short trajectories, wh...
In this year’s participation we continued to evaluate open source information retrieval software. We used mainly the system Lucene and experimented with some of the most effecti...
This paper introduces the concept of accessibility from the field of transportation planning and adopts it within the context of Information Retrieval (IR). An analogy is drawn bet...
