Measuring system performance and topic discernment using generalized adaptive-weight mean
2009
Proceeding of the 18th ACM conference on Information and knowledge management - CIKM '09
We propose the Generalized Adaptive-Weight Mean (GAWM) measure and show how it can be computed as a fixed point of a function for which the Brouwer Fixed Point Theorem applies. ...
Standard approaches to evaluating and comparing information retrieval systems compute simple averages of performance statistics across individual topics to measure the overall system performance. ...
We develop the Generalized Adaptive-Weight Mean (GAWM) measure and present a unified model for system evaluation using GAWM, where the weights reflect the ability of the test topics to differentiate among ...

Ad Hoc Monitoring of Vocabulary Shifts over Time
2015
Proceedings of the 24th ACM International on Conference on Information and Knowledge Management - CIKM '15
We construct semantic networks of terms based on their representation in the semantic spaces and use graph-based measures to calculate saliency of terms. ...
Word meanings change over time. Detecting shifts in meaning for particular words has been the focus of much research recently. ...
A method relying on such terms would run a considerable risk of topic drift.We compute four measures of degree centrality: number of inlinks, weighted sum of inlinks, number of outlinks and weighted sum ...

Improving SVM Text Classification Performance through Threshold Adjustment
[chapter]
2003
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
By using thresholds based on utility models and the ranking properties of classifiers, it is possible to overcome the precision bias of SVMs and insure robust performance in recall across a wide variety ...
We describe an automatic process for adjusting the thresholds of generic SVM which incorporates a user utility model, an integral part of an information management system. ...

Quality of health information on the Internet in pediatric neuro-oncology
2006
Neuro-Oncology
The Web sites were evaluated for content quality by using the validated DISCERN rating instrument. Breadth of content and its accuracy were also scored by a checklist tool. ...
Web sites were found deficient in topics covering etiology, late effects, prognosis, and treatment choices. ...
The interobserver variability for both rating methods was measured by using either weighted or unweighted kappa statistics. ...

A semi-supervised document clustering technique for information organization
2000
Proceedings of the ninth international conference on Information and knowledge management - CIKM '00
Most clustering methods organizes documents into groups based only on similarity measures. ...
As a basic clustering strategy, we use a variant of complete-linkage agglomerative hierarchical clustering, and develop the concepts (or seeds) of requested clusters by exploiting userrelevance feedback ...
We use the standard measurements of information retrieval performance: precision, recall and F-measure for each cluster, with respect to the topic in question. ...

Networked Decentralized Control of Adaptive Structures
2020
Journal of Communications
Control of such structures needs to be performed in real-time with high reliability and robustness. Decentralization provides a means to reduce cost and increase both redundancy and reliability. ...
Subsystem models are derived from a global Finite Element (FE) model of the structure using model order reduction techniques which enables the use of distributed and Decentralized Information Filters ( ...
Information on the structural deformation is obtained using two different measurement systems -an optical camera system and strain gauge sensors. ...

Improving M-learners' Performance Through Deep Learning Techniques by Leveraging Features Weights
2020
IEEE Access
Subsequently, both models were selected for developing the M-learning model which included the performance categorization of M-learners under a five-level classification scheme and assigning weights to ...
For an adaptive M-learning model, not only learning features are required, but it is also important to determine how they differ for various Mlearners, their weights, and interrelationship. ...
Five-point Likert-scale was used to measure M-learners' satisfaction toward using the M-learning system where 5 means ''strongly agree'' and 1 means ''strongly disagree''. ...
