Author: Dr. Renaud Delbru

Abstract: More and more (semi) structured information is becoming available on the Web in the form of documents embedding metadata. This calls for large scale systems providing effective means of searching and retrieving this semi-structured information. Towards this goal, we define an entity retrieval model, develop novel methodologies for sup-porting this model, and design a web-scale retrieval system around this model.
