Random walk term weighting for information retrieval
2007
Proceedings of the 30th annual international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval - SIGIR '07
We present a way of estimating term weights for Information Retrieval (IR), using term co-occurrence as a measure of dependency between terms. ...
Evaluation on two TREC collections and 350 topics shows that the random walk-based term weights perform at least comparably to the traditional tf·idf term weighting, while they outperform it when the distance ...
CONCLUSIONS We used a graph-based ranking model for text processing, namely the TextRank random walk algorithm, to derive term weights for Information Retrieval. ...

Blog distillation using random walks
2009
Proceedings of the 32nd international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval - SIGIR '09
We model the blogosphere as a single graph that includes extra information besides the content of the posts. By performing a random walk on this graph we extract most relevant blogs for each query. ...

Hypergraph-of-entity
2019
Open Computer Science
We present the hypergraph-of-entity as the next step in the graph-of-entity model, where we explore a ranking approach based on biased random walks. ...
We have previously proposed the graph-of-entity as a purely graph-based representation and retrieval model, however this model would scale poorly. ...
We would like to thank our colleagues at FEUP InfoLab, João Rocha for suggesting a switch to memorybased representations and Joana Rodrigues for patiently listening to rambles about hypergraphs. ...

Fatigued Random Walks in Hypergraphs: A Neuronal Analogy to Improve Retrieval Performance
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
For a higher effectiveness, a higher number of random walks is usually required, which often results in lower efficiency. ...
Inspired by von Neumann and the neuron in the brain, we propose and study the usage of node and hyperedge fatigue as a way to temporarily constrict random walks during keyword-based ad hoc retrieval. ...

REGIMvid at ImageCLEF2012: Concept-based Query Refinement and Relevance-based Ranking Enhancement for Image Retrieval
2012
Conference and Labs of the Evaluation Forum
Second, we try to achieve a high-quality relevance-based result not only with choosing an adequate similarity measure but also with enhancing obtained scores by elaborating a random walk with restart, ...
In this paper, we present our proposed approach that deals with two important steps in the retrieval process, which are query analysis and relevance-based ranking. ...
Therefore, elaborating a random walk [8] is an attempt for enhancing results. ...

Human memory search as a random walk in a semantic network
2012
Neural Information Processing Systems
We demonstrate that the results that were taken as evidence for this account also emerge from a random walk on a semantic network, much like the random web surfer model used in internet search engines. ...
The human mind has a remarkable ability to store a vast amount of information in memory, and an even more remarkable ability to retrieve these experiences when needed. ...
In addition to being simple, random walks on semantic networks have an interesting connection to methods used for information retrieval. ...

Fast query execution for retrieval models based on path-constrained random walks
2010
Proceedings of the 16th ACM SIGKDD international conference on Knowledge discovery and data mining - KDD '10
The PCRW based method significantly outperformed unsupervised random walk based queries, and models with learned edge weights. Unfortunately, PCRW query systems are expensive to evaluate. ...
Many recommendation and retrieval tasks can be represented as proximity queries on a labeled directed graph, with typed nodes representing documents, terms, and metadata, and labeled edges representing ...
One very common and successful set of proximity measures are based on random walks on graphs, for instance lazy random walks [19] or personalized PageRank [6, 8] or Random Walk with Restart [25] . ...

Multi-modal Image Retrieval with Random Walk on Multi-layer Graphs
2016
2016 IEEE International Symposium on Multimedia (ISM)
We therefore propose a new image retrieval solution that is able to sort images through a random walk on a multi-layer graph, where each layer corresponds to a different type of information about the image ...
We study in depth the design of the image graph and propose in particular an effective method to select the edge weights for the multi-layer graph, such that the image ranking scores are optimised. ...
Using this structure, we preserve important information about each type of information. Second, we develop a random walk process on the graph to retrieve similarity information between images. ...
