Funded by Finnish national agencies (VTT, Tekes) and companies (Nokia, Fujitsu, Lingsoft, Wartsila, Citec, RAY), it also involved the departments of computational linguistics and computer science of the University of Helsinki and the Helsinki University of Technology. I worked as a postdoctoral researcher, in charge of the information retrieval services.
  • EXTIRP (2003-2007) - project leader
    The EXTIRP system is an experimental information retrieval system that exploits XML hierarchy so as to return XML fragments of appropriate size to user queries. It was initally developed in 2003 by a team of 6 persons, and gradually improved until 2007, mostly by Miro Lehtonen and me. The EXTIRP system is central to the PhD thesis of Miro Lehtonen.
