User-centred versus system-centred evaluation of a personalization system

Some of the most popular measures to evaluate information filtering systems are usually independent of the users because they are based in relevance judgments obtained from experts. On the other hand, the user-centred evaluation allows showing the different impressions that the users have perceived about the system running. This work is focused on discussing the problem of user-centred ve…

Retrieval of images by spatial and object similarities

In the last several decades it has become an important basis to retrieve images from image databases (IDBs) by the semantic information held in the image objects and the spatial patterns formed by these objects. In this paper, we propose a new method for similarity retrieval of symbolic images by both the attributes and the spatial relationships of the contained objects. The proposed meth…

An information-pattern-based approach to novelty detection

In this paper, a new novelty detection approach based on the identification of sentence level information patterns is proposed. First, “novelty” is redefined based on the proposed information patterns, and several different types of information patterns are given corresponding to different types of users’ information needs. Second, a thorough analysis of sentence level information p…

Using information gain to improve multi-modal information retrieval systems

Nowadays, access to information requires managing multimedia databases effectively, and so, multi-modal retrieval techniques (particularly images retrieval) have become an active research direction. In the past few years, a lot of content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems have been developed. However, despite the progress achieved in the CBIR, the retrieval accuracy of current systems …

Test theory for evaluating reliability of IR test collections

Classical test theory offers theoretically derived reliability measures such as Cronbach’s alpha, which can be applied to measure the reliability of a set of Information Retrieval test results. The theory also supports item analysis, which identifies queries that are hampering the test’s reliability, and which may be candidates for refinement or removal. A generalization of Classical …

Re-examining the effects of adding relevance information in a relevance feedb…

This paper presents an investigation about how to automatically formulate effective queries using full or partial relevance information (i.e., the terms that are in relevant documents) in the context of relevance feedback (RF). The effects of adding relevance information in the RF environment are studied via controlled experiments. The conditions of these controlled experiments are formal…

A Code of Conduct for Indonesia: Problems and Perspectives

Previous analyses have shown that the success of ethics reforms such as the adoption of codes of ethics and codes of conduct depends on whether legislators have homogeneous ethical standards. In this paper, we discuss why the DPD (upper chamber) and the DPR (lower chamber) of the Indonesian legislature have decided to enact a code of conduct. The paper also presents the results of a surve…
