Abstract

Focussed structured document retrieval aims at retrieving best entry points from where users can browse to access relevant document components in the document structure. In this paper, we report on the development, implementation and evaluation of best entry point retrieval strategies derived from user studies designed to elicit what constitutes a best entry point.
