In the logical approach to information retrieval (IR), retrieval is considered as uncertain inference. Whereas classical IR models are based on propositional logic, we combine Dat...
Abstract. HySpirit is a retrieval engine for hypermedia retrieval integrating concepts from information retrieval (IR) and deductive databases. The logical view on IR models retrie...
In this paper we introduce POLAR, a probabilistic objectoriented logical framework for annotation-based information retrieval. In POLAR, the knowledge about digital objects, annot...
Abstract. Recent research has suggested that there is no general similarity measure, which can be applied on arbitrary databases without any parameterization. Hence, the optimal co...
Stochastic context-free grammars (SCFGs) have long been recognized as useful for a large variety of tasks including natural language processing, morphological parsing, speech reco...
