We consider the problem of large scale retrieval evaluation. Recently two methods based on random sampling were proposed as a solution to the extensive effort required to judge te...
The classical probabilistic models attempt to capture the Ad hoc information retrieval problem within a rigorous probabilistic framework. It has long been recognized that the prim...
Surface matching is fundamental to shape computing and various downstream applications. This paper develops a powerful pants decomposition framework for computing maps between sur...
