Overview of the INEX 2010 Question Answering Track (QA@INEX)

چکیده
The INEX QA track (QA@INEX) aims to evaluate a complex question-answering task. In such a task, the set of questions is composed of complex questions that can be answered by several sentences or by an aggregation of texts from di erent documents. Question-answering, XML/passage retrieval and automatic summarization are combined in order to get closer to real information needs. Based on the groundwork carried out in 2009-2010 edition to determine the sub-tasks and a novel evaluation methodology, the 2011 edition of the track is contextualizing tweets using a recent cleaned dump of the Wikipedia.

We consider two different data sets, the TREC 2002–2003 QA data set, and 93 wh...
متن کاملOverview of the INEX 2010 Ad Hoc Track
This paper gives an overview of the INEX 2010 Ad Hoc Track. The main goals of the Ad Hoc Track were three-fold. The first goal was to study focused retrieval under resource restricted conditions such as a small screen mobile device or a document summary on a hitlist. This leads to variants of the focused retrieval tasks that address the impact of result length/reading effort, thinking of focuse...
متن کاملOverview of the INEX 2010 Data Centric Track
The INEX 2010 Data Centric Track is discussed. A dump of IMDb was used as the document collection, 28 topics were submitted, 36 runs were submitted by 8 institutes, and 26 topics were assessed. Most runs (all except 2) did not use the structure present in the topics; and consequently no improvement is yet seen by search engines that do so.
