We explore a matrix-space model, that is a natural extension to the vector space model for Information Retrieval. Each document can be represented by a matrix that is based on document extracts (e.g. sentences, paragraphs, sections). We…
The state-of-the-art solutions to the vocabulary mismatch in information retrieval (IR) mainly aim at leveraging either the relational semantics provided by external resources or the distributional semantics, recently investigated by deep…
Tensors provide a structured representation for multidimensional data, yet discretization can obscure important information when such data originates from continuous processes. We address this limitation by introducing a functional Tucker…
Pre-trained language models have been widely exploited to learn dense representations of documents and queries for information retrieval. While previous efforts have primarily focused on improving effectiveness and user satisfaction,…

Traditional information retrieval systems rely on keywords to index documents and queries. In such systems, documents are retrieved based on the number of shared keywords with the query. This lexical-focused retrieval leads to inaccurate…
In Natural Language Processing, automatic extracting the meaning of texts constitutes an important problem. Our focus is the computational analysis of meaning of short scientific texts (abstracts or brief reports). In this paper, a vector…
A major difficulty in applying word vector embeddings in IR is in devising an effective and efficient strategy for obtaining representations of compound units of text, such as whole documents, (in comparison to the atomic words), for the…
In an effort to better understand meaning from natural language texts, we explore methods aimed at organizing lexical objects into contexts. A number of these methods for organization fall into a family defined by word ordering. Unlike…
Feature modeling of different modalities is a basic problem in current research of cross-modal information retrieval. Existing models typically project texts and images into one embedding space, in which semantically similar information…
There are many existing retrieval and question answering datasets. However, most of them either focus on ranked list evaluation or single-candidate question answering. This divide makes it challenging to properly evaluate approaches…
