This article reports on exploratory experiments in evaluating and improving a thesaurus through studying its effect on retrieval. A formula called DISTANCE was developed to measure the conceptual distance between queries and documents encoded as sets of thesaurus terms. DISTANCE references MeSH (Med

Rank-based estimates are asymptotically efficient when optimal scores are used. This paper describes a method for estimating the optimal score function based on residuals from an initial fit. The resulting adaptive estimate is shown to be asymptotically efficient.
Most spectra with structural information are smooth. Making use of this feature, a new procedure is proposed for automatic chemical rank determination. In order to avoid accumulation of noise, key spectra instead of the full matrix are ana-ลฝ . lyzed in the procedure. A simplified morphological facto
Nonparametric factorial designs for multivariate observations are considered under the framework of general rank-score statistics. Unlike most of the literature, we do not assume the continuity of the underlying distribution functions. The models studied include general repeated measures designs, co
