We consider the problem of ranking refinement, i.e., to improve the accuracy of an existing ranking function with a small set of labeled instances. We are, particularly, intereste...
Interactivity is a key concept in modern content-based retrieval. Therefore, in addition to the ability to learn from user generated data, easy and intuitive to use interfaces are...
We present the first interdisciplinary work on transforming a popular problem in proteomics, i.e. protein identification from tandem mass spectra, to an Information Retrieval (IR)...
We are developing a wearable device that attempts to alleviate some everyday memory problems. The “memory prosthesis” records audio and contextual information from conversation...
