In this paper, we propose an information retrieval model called Latent Interest Semantic Map (LISM), which features retrieval composed of both Collaborative Filtering(CF) and Prob...
The efficient management of interval data represents a core requirement for many temporal and spatial database applications. With the Relational Interval Tree (RI-tree1 ), an effi...
Information retrieval systems can be partitioned into two main classes: large-scale systems that make use of an inverted index or some other auxiliary data structure, intended for...
