I work in A.I., on a different area of search. This paper made no sense to me either. I have a sneaky feeling the authors might be trying to fancy up something very simple (that accusation is based on nothing more than reading many accademic papers and finding this one particularly unreadable, when I feel this paper should lend itself to a particular easy outline of their technique at least).
