Modern digital libraries require user-friendly and yet responsive access to the rapidly growing, heterogeneous, and distributed collection of information sources. However, the inc...
We consider the problem of computing the Euclidean projection of a vector of length n onto a closed convex set including the 1 ball and the specialized polyhedra employed in (Shal...
Beam search is used to maintain tractability in large search spaces at the expense of completeness and optimality. We study supervised learning of linear ranking functions for con...
