We developed a fully automated Information Retrieval System which uses advanced natural language processing techniques to enhance the effectiveness of traditional key-word based d...
This paper addresses the problem of Named Entity Recognition in Query (NERQ), which involves detection of the named entity in a given query and classification of the named entity...
The AncestorRank algorithm calculates an authority score by using just one characteristic of the web graph—the number of ancestors per node. For scalability, we estimate the num...
Many large-scale Web applications that require ranked top-k retrieval are implemented using inverted indices. An inverted index represents a sparse term-document matrix, where non...
