In addition, a reinforcement-learning based approach is developed in this thesis to take advantage of the run-time characteristics of P2P IR systems, including environmental parameters, bandwidth usage, and historical information about past search sessions. In the learning process, agents refine their content routing policies by constructing relatively accurate routing tables based on a Q-learning algorithm. Experimental results show that this learning algorithm considerably improves the performance of distributed search sessions in P2P IR systems. The book is addressed to researchers and practitioners in information retrieval and search engine, content-based routing areas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Haizheng Zhang,Victor Lesser\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3639084799\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783639084795\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag Dr. Mueller E.K.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/06\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.09h x 6.08w x 0.37d","brand":"Haizheng Zhang","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48454047662335,"sku":"9783639084795","price":63.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b89a80cf-d1f4-4447-93f0-33a600def84a.jpg?v=1777303866","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/toward-peer-to-peer-based-semantic-search-haizheng-zhang-9783639084795","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
