چکیده
Thomson Legal and Regulatory participated in the monolingual, the bilingual and the multilingual tracks. Our monolingual runs added Swedish to the languages we had submitted in previous participations. Our bilingual and multilingual efforts used English as the query language. We experimented with dictionaries and similarity thesauri for the bilingual task, while we used machine translations in our multi-lingual runs. Our various merging strategies had limited success compared to a simple round robin.
