This week, I’ll go through Chengxian Zhai and John Lafferty’s CIKM ’01 paper, ‘Model-based feedback in the language modeling approach to information retrieval’. Get it from the ACM website:

If you have any trouble downloading the paper then let me know and I’ll mail you a copy.

If you’re feeling keen, there’s another paper with some background on the risk minimization framework:
