Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) provides a lower rank approximation of a matrix. Due to nonnegativity imposed on the factors, it gives a latent structure that is often mor...
Modeling query concepts through term dependencies has been shown to have a significant positive effect on retrieval performance, especially for tasks such as web search, where rel...
Interoperability among systems using different term vocabularies requires mappings between them. Matching applications generate these mappings. When the matching process utilizes ...
