Abstract
The CLEF Interactive Track (iCLEF) is devoted to the comparative study of user-inclusive cross-language search strategies. In 2005, we have studied two cross-language search tasks: retrieval of answers and retrieval of annotated images. In both tasks, no further translation or post-processing is needed after performing the tasks to fulfill the information need.
In the interactive Question Answering task, users are asked to find the answer to a number of questions in a foreign-language document collection, and write the answers in their own native language. In the interactive image retrieval task, a picture is shown to the user, and then the user is asked to find the picture in the collection.
This paper summarizes the task design, experimental methodology, and the results obtained by the research groups participating in the track.
