Query length in interactive information retrieval

open access: yesProceedings of the 26th annual international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in informaion retrieval - SIGIR '03, 2003
Query length in best-match information retrieval (IR) systems is well known to be positively related to effectiveness in the IR task, when measured in experimental, non-interactive environments. However, in operational, interactive IR systems, query length is quite typically very short, on the order of two to three words.

IMPROVEMENT OF PEDESTRIAN DEAD RECKONING ALGORITHM FOR INDOOR POSITIONING BY USING STEP LENGTH ESTIMATION [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2022
Pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) can solve the position information by its inertial measurement unit (IMU), which is a method to achieve indoor autonomous positioning without deploying positioning base stations in advance.

Information Geometry of Nonlinear Stochastic Systems

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
We elucidate the effect of different deterministic nonlinear forces on geometric structure of stochastic processes by investigating the transient relaxation of initial PDFs of a stochastic variable x under forces proportional to -xn (n=3,5,7) and ...

The relationship between Intensive Care Unit Length of Stay information and its operational performance

open access: yesHealthcare Analytics, 2022
The increasing demand for Intensive Care Unit (ICU) beds requires efficient admission, discharge, and care processes. These efforts require predictions of Length of Stay (LOS) values; however, it is unclear how accurate these predictions need to be. This

Informational masking in word-length auditory patterns [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1978
Extremely imprecise resolution of the components of word-length tonal sequences, under conditions of high stimulus uncertainty, has led us to reconsider an earlier conclusion about the effective level of the components of such patterns. Watson and Spiegel [J. Acoust. Soc. Am.

Frequency, Informativity and Word Length: Insights from Typologically Diverse Corpora [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
Zipf’s law of abbreviation, which posits a negative correlation between word frequency and length, is one of the most famous and robust cross-linguistic generalizations. At the same time, it has been shown that contextual informativity (average surprisal given previous context) is more strongly correlated with word length, although this tendency is not

Information Geometry Theoretic Measures for Characterizing Neural Information Processing from Simulated EEG Signals

open access: yesEntropy
In this work, we explore information geometry theoretic measures for characterizing neural information processing from EEG signals simulated by stochastic nonlinear coupled oscillator models for both healthy subjects and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients

Information-Criterion-Based Lag Length Selection in Vector Autoregressive Approximations for I(2) Processes

open access: yesEconometrics, 2023
When using vector autoregressive (VAR) models for approximating time series, a key step is the selection of the lag length. Often this is performed using information criteria, even if a theoretical justification is lacking in some cases.

Structures in Sound: Analysis of Classical Music Using the Information Length

open access: yesEntropy, 2016
We show that music is represented by fluctuations away from the minimum path through statistical space. Our key idea is to envision music as the evolution of a non-equilibrium system and to construct probability distribution functions (PDFs) from musical

Textual attributes on integrated reporting quality: Evidence in Asia and Europe

open access: yesCogent Business & Management, 2022
Textual attribute integrated reporting refers to the difficulty level of readability and word length (narrative) of the information disclosed. The conciseness of information requires minimizing the length of words (narrative), offset by the increased ...
