We analyse the kinematics of probabilistic term weights at retrieval time for di erent Information Retrieval models. We present four models based on di erent notions of probabilis...

Human interpersonal face-to-face interaction can be considered in terms of successions of speech acts. These are utterances which contain an intention, and the act of creating an ...
