Classifier-Based Search in Large Document Collections

Entropy-Based Authorship Search in Large Document Collections

The purpose of authorship search is to identify documents written by a particular author in large document collections. Standard search engines match documents to queries based on topic, and are not applicable to authorship search. In this paper we propose an approach to authorship search based on information theory. We propose relative entropy of style markers for ranking, inspired by the lang...

Efficient Search in Document Image Collections

This paper presents an efficient indexing and retrieval scheme for searching in document image databases. In many non-European languages, optical character recognizers are not very accurate. Word spotting word image matching may instead be used to retrieve word images in response to a word image query. The approaches used for word spotting so far, dynamic timewarping and/or nearest neighbor sea...

Mediated access to very large document collections

Mediation based on structured specialised collections is proposed as an approach to supporting the exploration of very large document collections such as the Web. The main techniques employed are statistical language modelling and document clustering. The paper discusses the new interaction model and presents experimental results obtained with a prototypical system. References to papers which d...
