Recent work on language models for information retrieval has shown that smoothing language models is crucial for achieving good retrieval performance. Many different effective smo...
We propose in this paper a robust multi-resolution technique to estimate dense velocity field from image sequences. It couples a Gaussian pyramidal down-sampling decomposition to...
Recently many data types arising from data mining and Web search applications can be modeled as bipartite graphs. Examples include queries and URLs in query logs, and authors and ...
In this paper we use a Unified Relationship Matrix (URM) to represent a set of heterogeneous data objects (e.g., web pages, queries) and their interrelationships (e.g., hyperlinks...

We present a new algorithm to measure domain-specific readability. It iteratively computes the readability of domainspecific resources based on the difficulty of domain-specific c...
