This paper presents the MIRACLE’s team approach to text-based image retrieval at ImageCLEF 2005 adhoc task. The experiments defined this year try to use semantic information sources, like semantic dictionaries or text structure. For this purpose EuroWordnet has been considered and a new algorithm to extract synonyms from the semantic database has been developed. This new algorithm implementation is based on the proximity of words in the EuroWordnet tree and has been previously studied in [11]. On the other side, semantic information is implicitly included in the fields in which image descriptions are structured.
