Lexical Semantic Relatedness with Random Graph Walks
Many systems for tasks such as question answering, multi-document summarization, and information retrieval need robust numerical measures of lexical relatedness. Standard thesauru...

A Topic-Based Measure of Resource Description Quality for Distributed Information Retrieval
The aim of query-based sampling is to obtain a sufficient, representative sample of an underlying (text) collection. Current measures for assessing sample quality are too coarse gr...

Probabilistic modeling for continuous EDA with Boltzmann selection and Kullback-Leibeler divergence
This paper extends the Boltzmann Selection, a method in EDA with theoretical importance, from discrete domain to the continuous one. The difficulty of estimating the exact Boltzma...

Clustering for metric and nonmetric distance measures
We study a generalization of the k-median problem with respect to an arbitrary dissimilarity measure D. Given a finite set P of size n, our goal is to find a set C of size k such t...

Kernel-based Tracking from a Probabilistic Viewpoint
In this paper, we present a probabilistic formulation of kernel-based tracking methods based upon maximum likelihood estimation. To this end, we view the coordinates for the pixel...
