Abstract. In order to increase precision in searching for web pages or web documents, taking the temporal dimension into account is gaining increased interest. A particular problem...
Machiavelli is a polymorphically typed programming language in the spirit of ML, but supports an extended method of type inferencing that makes its polymorphism more general and a...
Term translation probabilities proved an effective method of semantic smoothing in the language modelling approach to information retrieval. We use Generalized Latent Semantic Ana...
We introduce factored language models (FLMs) and generalized parallel backoff (GPB). An FLM represents words as bundles of features (e.g., morphological classes, stems, data-drive...
We offer a solution to the type inference problem for an extension of Hindley and Milner's type system with generalized algebraic data types. Our approach is in two strata. T...
