Our goal is to automatically determine the cast of a feature-length film. This is challenging because the cast size is not known, with appearance changes of faces caused by extrin...
We present a novel language-model-based approach to reranking an initially retrieved list so as to improve precision at top ranks. Our model integrates whole-document information ...
: We participated in two tasks: Multi-8 two-years-on retrieval and Multi-8 results merging. For our multi-8 two-years-on retrieval work, simple multilingual ranked lists are first ...
This paper presents an analytical approach to evaluate the expected complexity of a generalized sphere decoding (GSD) algorithm, GSDλ − , for underdetermined integer leastsquare...
This paper explores the use of set expansion (SE) to improve question answering (QA) when the expected answer is a list of entities belonging to a certain class. Given a small set...
