Abstract

This paper exposes the results of our participation in INEX’06. Two runs were submitted to the Ad Hoc Thorough track obtained with Garnata, our Information Retrieval system for structured documents. We have implemented two different models based on Influence Diagrams, the SID and CID models. The result of this first participation has been very poor. In the paper, we describe the models, the system, and analyse the possible reason of such a bad performance.
