ABSTRACT
The abundant knowledge in web communities has motivated the research interests in discussion threads. The dynamic nature of discussion threads poses interesting and challenging problems for computer scientists. Although techniques such as semantic models or structural models have been shown to be useful in a number of areas, they are inefficient in understanding discussion threads due to the temporal dependence among posts in a discussion thread. Such dependence causes that semantics and structure coupled with each other in discussion threads. In this paper, we propose a sparse coding-based model named SMSS to Simultaneously Model Semantic and Structure of discussion threads.

Simultaneously modeling semantics and structure of threaded discussions: a sparse coding approach and its applications
SIGIR '09: Proceedings of the 32nd international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrievalThe huge amount of knowledge in web communities has motivated the research interests in threaded discussions. The dynamic nature of threaded discussions poses lots of challenging problems for computer scientists. Although techniques such as semantic ...
Semantics-based concurrency control: beyond commutativity
The concurrency of transactions executing on atomic data types can be enhanced through the use of semantic information about operations defined on these types. Hitherto, commutativity of operations has been exploited to provide enchanced concurrency ...
Retrieving similar discussion forum threads: a structure based approach
SIGIR '12: Proceedings of the 35th international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrievalOnline forums are becoming a popular way of finding useful information on the web. Search over forums for existing discussion threads so far is limited to keyword-based search due to the minimal effort required on part of the users. However, it is often ...
