XML is becoming the de facto standard for exchanging and querying documents over the Web. Many XML query languages such as XQuery and XPath use label paths to traverse the irregularly structured XML data. Several labeling schemes have been proposed to identify the structural relationships in the tree, as well as to support the incremental updates at a low cost. In this paper, we conduct a comprehensive...
In recent years, the free online encyclopaedia Wikipedia has become a standard resource to exploit to build knowledge base for various Natural Language Processing applications. In this paper, we exploit that resource to design a new query classification system.
