Abstract. We show that several previously proposed passage-based document ranking principles, along with some new ones, can be derived from the same probabilistic model. We use lan...
Many traditional information retrieval models, such as BM25 and language modeling, give good retrieval effectiveness, but can be difficult to implement efficiently. Recently, docum...
Though there are many Web application modelling approches these are aimed at assiting the implmentaion process. There are many benefits in creating a conceptual model of the Web ap...
The paper introduces a generalization for known probabilistic models such as log-linear and graphical models, called here multiplicative models. These models, that express probabi...
Repetition is an important phenomenon in a variety of domains, such as music, computer programs and architectural drawings. A generative model for these domains should account for...
