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...
We present a new method for information retrieval using hidden Markov models HMMs and relate our experience with this system on the TREC-7 ad hoc task. We develop a general framew...
Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are powerful statistical models that have found successful applications in Information Extraction (IE). In current approaches to applying HMMs to IE, a...
Abstract Trained musicians intuitively produce expressive variations that add to their audience's enjoyment. However, there is little quantitative information about the kinds ...
In this paper, we consider the problem of keyword query cleaning for structured databases from a probabilistic approach. Keyword query cleaning consists of rewriting the user quer...
