A Few Examples Go A Long Way

We address a specific enterprise document search scenario, where the information need is expressed in an elaborate manner. In our scenario, information needs are expressed using a short query (of a few keywords) together with examples of key reference pages. Given this setup, we investigate how the examples can be utilized to improve the end-to-end performance on the document retrieval task. Ou...

We still have a long way to go.

This paper presents the challenges involved for team members working on a research project from three different universities located in Melbourne and Brisbane. An advisory university was located overseas in Surrey, England. A variety of computer mediated technologies were used for online collaborations and discussions such as Skype, Elluminate Live!, Carrick Exchange and an Access Grid. Team co...

MicroRNAs and Cancer: Short RNAs Go a Long Way

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) may be important regulators of gene expression. By modulating oncogenic and tumor suppressor pathways they could, in principle, contribute to tumorigenesis. Consistent with this hypothesis, recurrent genetic and epigenetic alterations of individual miRNAs are found in some tumors. Functional studies are now elucidating the mechanism of action of putative oncogenic and tumor s...

MicroRNAs and metastasis: little RNAs go a long way.

MicroRNAs (miRNA) are key regulators of many important biological processes from insulin secretion and fat metabolism to cellular proliferation and differentiation. Given the critical role that these small regulatory RNAs play in biology, it is not surprising that the alteration of miRNA expression patterns can have pathogenic consequences. The association between miRNA dysregulation and pathog...
