In ongoing research, a collaborative peer network application is being proposed to address the scalability limitations of centralized search engines. Here we introduce a local ada...
This poster session examines a probabilistic approach to distributed information retrieval using a Logistic Regression algorithm for estimation of collection relevance. The algori...
Information on the Web is not only abundant but also redundant. This redundancy of information has an important consequence on the relation between the recall of an information ga...
New optimization techniques, e. g., in data stream management systems (DSMSs), make the treatment of disjunctive predicates a necessity. In this paper, we introduce and compare me...
Abstract. We present the fusion of simple retrieval strategies with thesaural resources to perform document and query translation by text categorisation for cross
