Considering Registered Reports at C&RL

Editorial: Introducing Registered Reports

Writing a grant proposal is a typical example: we give a detailed plan of what we are going to do in the coming years. Of course, we never know how a project will evolve, and deviations from the original plan are commonplace, as milestones ...

CRL at NTCIR2

We have developed systems of two types for NTCIR2. One is an enhenced version of the system we developed for NTCIR1 and IREX. It submitted retrieval results for JJ and CC tasks. A variety of parameters were tried with the system. It used such characteristics of newspapers as locational information in the CC tasks. The system got good results for both of the tasks. The other system is a portable...

CRL/NYU Summarization System at DUC-2004

We participated in two multi-document summarization tasks (Task 2 and Task 5) at the DUC-2004 formal run and evaluated the performance of our summarization system. Our system based on sentence extraction also uses a module to estimate similarity between sentences. The similarity information was used for either selecting the representative sentence among similar sentences or gathering key senten...
