Query expansion methods have been extensively studied in information retrieval. This paper proposes a query expansion method. The HQE method employs a combination of ontology-based collaborative filtering and neural networks to improve query expansion. In the HQE method, ontology-based collaborative filtering is used to analyze semantic relationships in order to find the similar users, and the ...

We formulate a coupled vibration problem between a structure and an acoustic field by FEM. The problem leads to a non-standard eigenvalue problem. Furthermore, we introduce a coupling strength parameter ε as a multiplier applied to the non-diagonal coupling terms. A natural interpretation of this parameter is given. We represent an eigenpair for the coupled system by a perturbation series with ...

A new Taylor series method that the authors originally developed for the solution of one-dimensional integral equations is extended to solve multivariate integral equations. In this paper, the new method is applied to the solution of multivariate Fredholm equations of the second kind. A comparison is given of the new method and the traditional Taylor series method of solving integral equations....

This paper gives the analysis and numerics underlying a shooting method for approximating the eigenvalues of nonselfadjoint Sturm-Liouville problems. We consider even order problems with (equally divided) separated boundary conditions. The method can nd the eigenvalues in a rectangle and in a left half-plane. It combines the argument principle with the compound matrix method (using the Magnus e...

The aim of this paper is to present a numerical method for singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problems with a delay. The method is a combination of the asymptotic expansion technique and the reproducing kernel method (RKM). First an asymptotic expansion for the solution of the given singularly perturbed delayed boundary value problem is constructed. Then the reduced regular delayed diffe...

in recent years, numerous approaches have been utilized for finding the exact solutions to nonlinear partial differential equations. one such method is known as the new extended (g'/g)-expansion method and was proposed by roshid et al. in this paper, we apply this method and achieve exact solutions to nonlinear partial differential equations (nlpdes), namely the benjamin-ono equation. it i...
