We consider 3D object retrieval in which a polygonal mesh serves as a query and similar objects are retrieved from a collection of 3D objects. Algorithms proceed first by a normal...
We propose a new probabilistic approach to information retrieval based upon the ideas and methods of statistical machine translation. The central ingredient in this approach is a ...
This paper presents our research in image content based indexing and retrieval, a key technology in digital image libraries. In most of the existing image content-based techniques...
How to improve search accuracy for difficult topics is an underaddressed, yet important research question. In this paper, we consider a scenario when the search results are so poo...
We introduce the Ranked Feature Fusion framework for information retrieval system design. Typical information retrieval formalisms such as the vector space model, the bestmatch mo...
