摘要:
A query and a factoid type selection are received from a user. An index of passages, indexed based on factoids, is accessed and passages that are related to the query, and that have the selected factoid type, are retrieved. The retrieved passages are ranked and provided to the user based on a calculated score, in rank order.

摘要:
Collaborative bootstrapping with uncertainty reduction for increased classifier performance. One classifier selects a portion of data that is uncertain with respect to the classifier and a second classifier labels the portion. Uncertainty reduction includes parallel processing where the second classifier also selects an uncertain portion for the first classifier to label. Uncertainty reduction can be incorporated into existing or new co-training or bootstrapping, including bilingual bootstrapping.

摘要:
A method and system for generating a ranking function to rank the relevance of documents to a query is provided. The ranking system learns a ranking function from training data that includes queries, resultant documents, and relevance of each document to its query. The ranking system learns a ranking function using the training data by weighting incorrect rankings of relevant documents more heavily than the incorrect rankings of not relevant documents so that more emphasis is placed on correctly ranking relevant documents. The ranking system may also learn a ranking function using the training data by normalizing the contribution of each query to the ranking function so that it is independent of the number of relevant documents of each query.
摘要:
A cascaded processing approach is used to clean noisy electronic mail or other text messaging data. Non-text filtering is first performed on the noisy data to filter out non-text items in the data. Text normalization is then performed on the filtered data to provide cleaned data. The cleaned data can be used in one or more of a wide variety of other applications or processing systems.
摘要:
A two stage model identifies individuals having knowledge in a subject matter area relevant to a query. A relevance model receives a query and identifies documents, or other information, relevant to the query. A co-occurrence model identifies individuals, in the retrieved documents, related to the subject matter of the query. Individuals identified can be scored by combining scores from the relevance model and the co-occurrence model and output in a rank ordered list.

A method for extracting key terms and associated key terms for use in text mining is provided. The method includes receiving unstructured text documents, such as emails over a customer service system. Term candidates are extracted based on identifying consecutive word strings satisfying a context independency threshold. Term candidates are weighted using mutual information to generate a list of weighted terms. The weighted terms are then recounted. Terms are associated based on Chi-square values. Associated terms can then be used for information retrieval. A user interface can be personalized with individual user profiles.
