Hi, I have desire to contribute in GSOC 2012 open source development. I go through the GSOC 2012 projects details and it sounds to me an interesting project. I am interested in the following project: ? Weighting Schemes I have relevant experience as an open source C++ developer at Google. Inc USA, Warid Telecom UAE & Buraq Integrated Solutions (Australian based company). Firstly, I would

Hi all, Some days ago I attempted to submitt Syslinux as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2012, but Google rejected it. As kernel.org has been accepted as a mentoring organization, and also listed Syslinux as one of the things they intend to develop, we can work with them under their umbrella. As I'm currently the only mentor of kernel.org (for Syslinux, specifically),

Hi All, I'm Sumith, a postgraduate student in Monash university. I'm working in the area of Text weighting schemes and Text Mining. When I'm going through the GSOC project list, I felt interested in the 'Weighting Schemes' project. At the moment, I have worked with different weighting schemes as TF-IDF and would love to join and contribute with my ideas in this project.

The deadline for student applications is 19:00 UTC on Friday 6th April: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2012 That's just over 36 hours away as I write this. The deadline is sharply enforced by the melange software, and you won't get an extension, so don't leave it until the last few seconds, as you might have an unexpected internet outage. There's also no

Dear Sir, I am Pankaj Singhal from Jaipur, India. I am very much interested and strongly looking forward in getting involved in this project Learning-to-Rank. My previous experience in this field is good. Last semester I did a similar job of ranking the URLs of the given huge dataset based on their attribute values. The dataset consisted hundreds of thousands of URLs and each url

Hello everyone! I'm Ayush Tomar, junior undergrad in Computer Science from New Delhi, India. I love C++ coding and working on machine learning and information retrieval project. I was exploring the GSoC ideas for Xapian and the project on "Adding Weighting Schemes" looked really interesting to me. I wanted to work on text mining/IR this summer and this idea seems perfect! I have

Hello Everyone, I am a second year graduate student at IIIT-Bangalore and my interest is in the field of Information Retrieval. I have successfully compiled Xapian from source and have implemented some examples. While going through the project list Weighting Schemes project is the one I was looking to contribute to. So i went through the xapian-core/weight where most of the schemes are already

Hi, I am Abhishek Currently Xapian::Weight follows BM25 scheme, many models such as the Divergence from Randomness (DfR) family of models, Unigram Language Model and the Bi-gram Language Model implemented two years ago in GSoc 2012 yet not merged to the master.

Hi James, Thanks for clearing doubts I had earlier. >>if we can introduce the variants using optional parameters that default to >>(effectively) 'off' that might be better than distinct ones, Yes, this will definitely be the better approach for introducing the variants of existing weighting functions. Thanks for the suggestion. Next, I will try to come up with a draft of

Hi All, I am looking at applications of percentiles to time sequenced data. I had just been using the quantile function to get percentiles over various periods, but am more interested in if there is an accepted (and/or R-implemented) method to apply weighting to the data so as to weigh recent data more heavily. I wrote the following function, but it seems quite inefficient, and not really very
