Abstract

This paper describes the retrieval approach proposed by the SIG/EVI group of the IRIT research centre in INEX’2004 evaluation. The approach uses a voting method coupled with some processes to answer content only and content and structure queries. This approach is based on previous works we leaded in the context of automatic text categorization.
