Abstract
This paper presents the participation of the MIRACLE team at the ImageCLEF 2005 interactive search task, in which we compare the efficiency of AND monolingual queries (which have to be precise and use the exact vocabulary, which may be difficult in a specialised search task) versus relevanceguided OR bilingual queries (a fuzzier and noisier search but which doesn’t require precise vocabulary and exact translations). User preferences and strategies in the context of cross-lingual interactive image retrieval are also analysed.
