Recent computer science PhD graduate and postdoctoral fellow Andrew Kane, MMath graduate Dallas Fraser, and Distinguished Professor Emeritus Frank Tompa have received the best paper award at DocEng 2018, the 18th ACM Symposium on Document Engineering.
Their paper, titled Choosing Math Features for BM25 Ranking with Tangent-L, explores how to adapt the state-of-the-art BM25 text ranking method to work effectively when searching for mathematical symbols with text in documents. The research was presented at DocEng’s annual symposium held this year in Halifax, Nova Scotia from August 28–31, 2018. Read the full story.
