Abstract
This paper reports experiments in CLEF 2005’s domain-specific retrieval track carried out at the University of Hildesheim. The experiments were based on previous experiences with the GIRT document corpus and were run in parallel to the multi-lingual experiments for CLEF 2005. We optimized the parameters of the system with one corpus from 2004 and applied these settings to the domain specific task. In that manner, the robustness of our approach over different document collection was assessed.
