We propose and evaluate a query expansion mechanism that supports searching and browsing in collections of annotated documents. Based on generative language models, our feedback me...
In this paper, we prove for the first time that the learning complexity of Rocchio’s algorithm is O(d+d2 (log d+log n)) over the discretized vector space {0, . . . , n − 1}d ,...
Efficient querying XML documents is an increasingly important issue considering the fact that XML becomes the de facto standard for data representation and exchange over the Web,...
This paper presents a new dependence language modeling approach to information retrieval. The approach extends the basic language modeling approach based on unigram by relaxing th...
