The LETOR website contains three information retrieval datasets used as a benchmark for testing machine learning ideas for ranking. Algorithms participating in the challenge are re...
Content-based retrieval (CBIR) methods in medical databases have been designed to support specific tasks, such as retrieval of digital mammograms or 3D MRI images. These methods c...
State-of-the-art object retrieval systems are mostly based on the bag-of-visual-words representation which encodes local appearance information of an image in a feature vector. A ...
To solve this problem, we devised the HS-bitmap index, which is hierarchically comprised of compressed data of summary bits. A summary bit in an upper matrix is obtained by logical...
This paper studies the problem of unified ranked retrieval of heterogeneous XML documents and Web data. We propose an effective search engine called Sailer to adaptively and versa...
