We consider the Blind Source Separation problem of linear mixtures with singular matrices and show that it can be solved if the sources are sufficiently sparse. More generally, we ...
Syntactic information potentially plays a much more important role in question answering than it does in information retrieval. Although many people have used syntactic evidence i...
The Constraint Problems usually addressed fall into one of two models: the Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) and the Constraint Optimization Problem (COP). However, in many rea...
We present a new method for information retrievalusing hidden Markov models (HMMs). We develop a general framework for incorporating multiple word generation mechanisms within the...
To address the emerging needs of applications that require access to and retrieval of multimediaobjects, we are developing the Multimedia Analysis and Retrieval System (MARS) in o...
