Probability Bracket Notation, Term Vector Space, Concept Fock Space and Induced Probabilistic IR Models

چکیده
After a brief introduction to Probability Bracket Notation (PBN) for discrete random variables in time-independent probability spaces, we apply both PBN and Dirac notation to investigate probabilistic modeling for information retrieval (IR). We derive the expressions of relevance of document to query (RDQ) for various probabilistic models, induced by Term Vector Space (TVS) and by Concept Fock Space (CFS). The inference network model (INM) formula is symmetric and can be used to evaluate relevance of document to document (RDD); the CFS-induced models contain ingredients of all three classical IR models. The relevance formulas are tested and compared on different scenarios against a famous textbook example.

Induced Hilbert Space, Markov Chain, Diffusion Map and Fock Space in Thermophysics
In this article, we continue to explore Probability Bracket Notation (PBN), proposed in our previous article. Using both Dirac vector bracket notation (VBN) and PBN, we define induced Hilbert space and induced sample space, and propose that there exists an equivalence relation between a Hilbert space and a sample space constructed from the same base observable(s). Then we investigate Markov tra...
متن کاملDirac Notation, Fock Space and Riemann Metric Tensor in Information Retrieval Models
Using Dirac Notation as a powerful tool, we investigate the three classical Information Retrieval (IR) models and some their extensions. We show that almost all such models can be described by vectors in Occupation Number Representations (ONR) of Fock spaces with various specifications on, e.g., occupation number, inner product or termterm interactions. As important cases of study, Concept Fock...
متن کاملMenger probabilistic normed space is a category topological vector space
In this paper, we formalize the Menger probabilistic normed space as a category in which its objects are the Menger probabilistic normed spaces and its morphisms are fuzzy continuous operators. Then, we show that the category of probabilistic normed spaces is isomorphicly a subcategory of the category of topological vector spaces. So, we can easily apply the results of topological vector spaces...
متن کاملSupport vector regression with random output variable and probabilistic constraints
Support Vector Regression (SVR) solves regression problems based on the concept of Support Vector Machine (SVM). In this paper, a new model of SVR with probabilistic constraints is proposed that any of output data and bias are considered the random variables with uniform probability functions. Using the new proposed method, the optimal hyperplane regression can be obtained by solving a quadrati...
متن کاملProbability Bracket Notation, Probability Vectors, Markov Chains and Stochastic Processes
Dirac notation has been widely used for vectors in Hilbert spaces of Quantum Theories. In this paper, we propose to use the Probability Bracket Notation (PBN), a new set of symbols defined similarly (but not identically) as in Dirac notation. By applying PBN to fundamental definitions and theorems for discrete and continuous random variables, we show that PBN could play a similar role in probab...
