Project Title: Collaborative Filtering algorithms for Recommender Systems
Collaborative filtering algorithms for Recommender Systems are really popular and they are working to trust based and temporal collaborative filtering algorithms and looking forward to improve the mean absolute error, precision, recall and hit rate of existing solutions. They are also working on the evolution of recommender systems, on which they have a very few existing literatures. They have developed several new hypotheses on this issue and investigating their effectiveness empirically.
Project Title: Query Expansion for Web Search Using Social Keywords

Project Title: Searching Tree Structured Xml Database Using Forest Query
For xml database searching they are working on answering forest queries and devising different methods for improving existing tree edit distance algorithms and subtree ranking algorithms for that purpose.
Project Title: Emotion Based Search Result Re-ranking.
Moreover, another important information retrieval task is being addressed by them, which is emotion based search result ranking. They are trying to re-rank the result set returned by existing popular search engines based on the emotion of a user using it and finally produce a personal experience for the user.
