  2. Presentation overview INEX 2008Dagstuhl2008-12-16 • What is CADIAL project? • System overview • Ranking model • Ad hoc results • Conclusion • Future work

  3. What is CADIAL project? INEX 2008Dagstuhl2008-12-16 • Bilateral project between the Government of Flanders and the Ministry of Science, Education and Sports of the Republic of Croatia • Aims of the CADIAL project: • Provide access to a collection of Croatian legislative documents • Enable the use of the Eurovoc thesaurus, an EU standard thesaurus for document indexing and retrieval

  4. System overview INEX 2008Dagstuhl2008-12-16 • Built with expandability in mind • Supports multiple information retrieval models • Supports morphological normalization modules • An indexer tool is used for document indexing • Input documents are in XML format • Output is an index database (a base structure for every search engine model)‏ • Index database is upgraded with additional data required by the model (various statistical information)‏

  5. Ranking model INEX 2008Dagstuhl2008-12-16 • Language model • Element priors based on element location and depth • Smoothing on document and collection level • Additional features • Support for CAS queries • Support for +/- keyword operators • Simple overlapping element removal • Stemming

  6. Ad hoc results INEX 2008Dagstuhl2008-12-16 • Our runs: • Three CO runs • One returning only documents • Two returning elements • Three CAS runs with various smoothing factors

  7. Ad hoc results INEX 2008Dagstuhl2008-12-16

  8. Conclusion INEX 2008Dagstuhl2008-12-16 • Retrieving whole documents performed better than element retrieval at higher levels of recall • CAS queries performed slightly better that CO queries • Higher smoothing at the document level contributed to better performance

  9. Future work INEX 2008Dagstuhl2008-12-16 • Other smoothing techniques • Pseudo relevance feedback • Incorporating link evidence • Information extraction methods
