Information retrieval is, in general, an iterative search process, in which the user often has several interactions with a retrieval system for an information need. The retrieval ...
This paper proposes GBM (gravitation-based model), a physical model for information retrieval inspired by Newton’s theory of gravitation. A mapping is built in this model from c...
Accurately and effectively detecting the locations where search queries are truly about has huge potential impact on increasing search relevance. In this paper, we define a search...
