Learning Value Predictors for the Speculative Execution of Information Gathering Plans
Speculative execution of information gathering plans can dramatically reduce the effect of source I/O latencies on overall performance. However, the utility of speculation is clos...

Bypass rates: reducing query abandonment using negative inferences
We introduce a new approach to analyzing click logs by examining both the documents that are clicked and those that are bypassed--documents returned higher in the ordering of the ...

Learning to rank query reformulations
Query reformulation techniques based on query logs have recently proven to be effective for web queries. However, when initial queries have reasonably good quality, these techniqu...
