Abstract. Most existing search engines employ static ranking algorithms that do not adapt to the specific needs of users. Recently, some researchers have studied the use of clickth...
—We present an information retrieval model for combining evidence from concept-based semantics, term statistics, and context for improving search precision of genomics literature...
We present an algorithm for video retrieval that fuses the decisions of multiple retrieval agents in both text and image modalities. While the normalization and combination of evi...
In this paper we show how the complexity of performing nearest neighbor (NNS) search on a metric space is related to the expansion of the metric space. Given a metric space we loo...
Many databases have become Web-accessible through form-based search interfaces (i.e., HTML forms) that allow users to specify complex and precise queries to access the underlying ...
