  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 3493))

Abstract

This paper describes the evaluation of the XFIRM system in INEX 2004 framework. The XFIRM system uses a relevance propagation method to answer queries composed of content conditions and/or structure conditions. Runs were submitted to the ad-hoc (for both CO and VCAS task) and heterogeneous tracks.
