People that worked on the same idea for decades — Nitya's Notes
- I collect examples of people that worked on iterations of the same idea over the course of decades, before landing on their magnum opus 1.
- BM25 + Stephen Robertson Stephen Robertson is a computer scientist known for his work on probabilistic information retrieval, most famously leading to BM25.
- In 1976, when researchers wanted to determine the relevancy of a document to a query, prevailing intuition was that a document that has a greater count of query term is more relevant.
