Building a diversity featured search system by fusing existing tools
This paper describes our diversity featured retrieval system which are built for the task
of ImageCLEFPhoto 2008. Two existing tools are used: Solr and Carrot. We have
experimented with different settings of the system to see how the performance changes.
The results suggest that the system can indeed increase diversity of the retrieved results
and keep the precision about the same
Computational Approaches to Measuring the Similarity of Short Contexts : A Review of Applications and Methods
Measuring the similarity of short written contexts is a fundamental problem
in Natural Language Processing. This article provides a unifying framework by
which short context problems can be categorized both by their intended
application and proposed solution. The goal is to show that various problems
and methodologies that appear quite different on the surface are in fact very
closely related. The axes by which these categorizations are made include the
format of the contexts (headed versus headless), the way in which the contexts
are to be measured (first-order versus second-order similarity), and the
information used to represent the features in the contexts (micro versus macro
views). The unifying thread that binds together many short context applications
and methods is the fact that similarity decisions must be made between contexts
that share few (if any) words in common.Comment: 23 page
