SEARCH FOR A "GRAVITOID" THEORY [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics A, 2003
By combining the concepts of graviton and matroid, we outline a new gravitational theory which we call gravitoid theory. The idea of this theory emerged as an attempt to link the mathematical structure of matroid theory with M theory. Our observations are essentially based on the formulation of matroid bundle due to MacPherson and Anderson–Davis. Also,

An Analysis of Theories of Search and Search Behavior [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 2015 International Conference on The Theory of Information Retrieval, 2015
Theories of search and search behavior can be used to glean insights and generate hypotheses about how people interact with retrieval systems. This paper examines three such theories, the long standing Information Foraging Theory, along with the more recently proposed Search Economic Theory and the Interactive Probability Ranking Principle. Our goal is
