Distributed Ranking Methods for Geographic Information Retrieval [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Geographic Information Retrieval is concerned with retrieving documents that are related to some location. This paper addresses the ranking of documents by both textual and spatial relevance. To this end, we introduce distributed ranking, where similar documents are ranked spread in the list instead of consecutively.

Is ChatGPT Good at Search? Investigating Large Language Models as Re-Ranking Agent [PDF]

open access: yesConference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing, 2023
Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable zero-shot generalization across various language-related tasks, including search engines. However, existing work utilizes the generative ability of LLMs for Information Retrieval (IR) rather than ...

Neural ranking models for document retrieval [PDF]

open access: yesInformation Retrieval Journal, 2021
Ranking models are the main components of information retrieval systems. Several approaches to ranking are based on traditional machine learning algorithms using a set of hand-crafted features. Recently, researchers have leveraged deep learning models in

In-Context Retrieval-Augmented Language Models [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2023
Retrieval-Augmented Language Modeling (RALM) methods, which condition a language model (LM) on relevant documents from a grounding corpus during generation, were shown to significantly improve language modeling performance. In addition, they can mitigate

Learning to Truncate Ranked Lists for Information Retrieval

open access: yesProceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2021
Ranked list truncation is of critical importance in a variety of professional information retrieval applications such as patent search or legal search. The goal is to dynamically determine the number of returned documents according to some user-defined objectives, in order to reach a balance between the overall utility of the results and user efforts ...

Text-to-Image GAN-Based Scene Retrieval and Re-Ranking Considering Word Importance

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
In this paper, we propose a novel scene retrieval and re-ranking method based on a text-to-image Generative Adversarial Network (GAN). The proposed method generates an image from an input query sentence based on the text-to-image GAN and then retrieves a

Graph-Embedding Empowered Entity Retrieval

open access: yes, 2020
In this research, we improve upon the current state of the art in entity retrieval by re-ranking the result list using graph embeddings. The paper shows that graph embeddings are useful for entity-oriented search tasks.

A probabilistic justification for using tf.idf term weighting in information retrieval [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
This paper presents a new probabilistic model of information retrieval. The most important modeling assumption made is that documents and queries are defined by an ordered sequence of single terms.
