Informationgathering requires locating and integrating data froma set of distributed informationsources. These sources maycontain overlapping data and can comefrom different types...
This paper presents a probabilistic information retrieval framework in which the retrieval problem is formally treated as a statistical decision problem. In this framework, querie...
This paper proposes an English learning support tool which provides users with divergent information to find the right words and expressions. In contrast to a number of software to...
We study the expressibility problem: given a finite constraint language Γ on a finite domain and another relation R, can Γ express R? We prove, by an explicit family of example...
—This paper proposes a probabilistic technique that enables a node to estimate the number of its neighbors that fulfill certain criteria. The technique does not require any a pr...
