Examining Overfitting in Relevance Feedback: Sabir Research at TREC 2007.
Chris Buckley · Text REtrieval Conference · 2007
Sabir Research participated in TREC-2007 in the Million Query and Legal tracks. This writeup focuses on the Legal track, and in particular on the relevance feedback and interactive tasks within the Legal track. The information retrieval software used was the research version of SMART 16.0. SMART was originally developed in the early 1960’s by Gerard Salton and since then has continued to be a leading research information retrieval tool. It continues to use a statistical vector space model, with stemming, stop words, weighting, inner product similarity function, and ranked retrieval.
