A new probabilistic retrieval model based on the dirichlet compound multinomial distribution
The classical probabilistic models attempt to capture the Ad hoc information retrieval problem within a rigorous probabilistic framework. It has long been recognized that the prim...

Regularized estimation of mixture models for robust pseudo-relevance feedback
Pseudo-relevance feedback has proven to be an effective strategy for improving retrieval accuracy in all retrieval models. However the performance of existing pseudo feedback meth...

A probabilistic model based approach for blended search
In this paper, we propose to model the blended search problem by assuming conditional dependencies among queries, VSEs and search results. The probability distributions of this mo...

Fast query expansion using approximations of relevance models
Pseudo-relevance feedback (PRF) improves search quality by expanding the query using terms from high-ranking documents from an initial retrieval. Although PRF can often result in ...
