This paper introduces a new approach to add fault-tolerance to a fulltext retrieval system. The weighted pattern morphing technique circumvents some of the disadvantages of the wid...
The ability of fast similarity search at large scale is of great importance to many Information Retrieval (IR) applications. A promising way to accelerate similarity search is sem...
In this paper the effectiveness of a corrective learning algorithm MIL (Mirror Image Learning) [1], [2] is comparatively studied with that of GLVQ (Generalized Learning Vector Qua...
Traditional information retrieval systems use query words to identify relevant documents. In difficult retrieval tasks, however, one needs access to a wealth of background knowled...
