چکیده
In this paper, we report the experiments we conducted for our participation to the TREC 2011 Web Track. The experiments we conducted this year aim at discovering how the combination of specific external resources in a language modeling fashion can help web search. We use Wikipedia and Google as external resources for different search contexts.

We report on the participation of the Interactive Information Access group of the CWI Amsterdam in the web, session, and medical track at TREC 2011. In the web track we focus on the diversity task. We find that cluster-based subtopic modeling approaches improve diversification performance compared to a non-cluster-based subtopic modeling approach. While gain was observed on previous years’ topi...
متن کاملExperiments at the University of Edinburgh for the TREC 2006 QA Track
We describe experiments carried out at the University of Edinburgh for our TREC 2006 QA participation. Our main effort was to develop an approach to QA that is based on frame semantics. Two algorithms were implemented to this end, building on the lexical resources FrameNet, PropBank and VerbNet. The first algorithm uses the resources to generate potential answer templates to a given question, w...
