Applying Data Mining to Pseudo-Relevance Feedback for High Performance Text Retrieval
In this paper, we investigate the use of data mining, in particular the text classification and co-training techniques, to identify more relevant passages based on a small set of...

Re-ranking search results using document-passage graphs
We present a novel passage-based approach to re-ranking documents in an initially retrieved list so as to improve precision at top ranks. While most work on passage-based document...
