This work shows Information Retrieval experiments performed over handwritten documents produced by a single writer. The same retrieval task has been performed over both manual (no errors) and automatic (Word Error Rate around 45%) transcriptions of 200 han ...
Presentations are becoming an increasingly more common means of communication in working environments, and slides are often the necessary supporting material on which the presentations rely. In this paper, we describe a slide indexing and retrieval system ...

Spoken Document Retrieval (SDR) consists in retrieving segments of a speech database that are relevant to a query. The state-of-the-art approach to the SDR problem consists in transcribing the speech data into digital text before applying common Informatio ...
This paper presents an indexing system for spoken audio documents. The framework is indexing and retrieval of broadcast news. The proposed indexing system applies latent semantic analysis (LSA) and self-organizing maps (SOM) to map the documents into a sem ...
A method is presented to provide a useful searchable index for spoken audio documents. The task differs from the traditional (text) document indexing, because large audio databases are decoded by automatic speech recognition and decoding errors occur frequ ...
Semantic document annotation may be useful for many tasks. In particular, in the framework of the MDM project(http://www.issco.unige.ch/projects/im2/mdm/), topical annotation -- i.e. the annotation of document segments with tags identifying the topics disc ...

In this article we present a novel approach of integrating textual and visual descriptors of images in a unified retrieval structure. The methodology, inspired from text retrieval and information filtering is based on Latent Semantic Indexing (LS1). ...
One difficulty often overlooked in information retrieval systems is that search criteria themselves are often poorly defined. People describe their information needs in many different ways and frequently change their goals depending on the current results ...
