This paper reports a controlled study with statistical signi cance tests on ve text categorization methods: the Support Vector Machines (SVM), a k-Nearest Neighbor (kNN) classi er...
We present a new method for information retrievalusing hidden Markov models (HMMs). We develop a general framework for incorporating multiple word generation mechanisms within the...
There has been much recent interest in retrieval of time series data. Earlier work has used a fixed similarity metric (e.g., Euclidean distance) to determine the similarity betwee...
A content-based retrieval model for tackling the mismatch problems specific to music data is proposed and implemented. The system uses a pitch profile encoding for queries in any ...
We propose a new probabilistic approach to information retrieval based upon the ideas and methods of statistical machine translation. The central ingredient in this approach is a ...
