This paper presents an evaluation of evolved term-weighting schemes on short, medium and long TREC queries. A previously evolved global (collection-wide) term-weighting scheme is ...
We here expand on a previous paper concerning the role of logic in information retrieval (IR) modelling. In that paper, among other things, we had pointed out how different ways of...
Abstract We present a new ranking algorithm that combines the strengths of two previous methods: boosted tree classification, and LambdaRank, which has been shown to be empiricall...

The bag of words representation (BoW), which is widely used in information retrieval (IR), represents documents and queries as word lists that do not express anything about context...
We present an on-line learning framework tailored towards real-time learning from observed user behavior in search engines and other information retrieval systems. In particular, ...
