Abstract

Despite the active research on XML retrieval, it is a great challenge to determine the contexts where the methods can be applied and where the proven results hold. Therefore, having a common taxonomy for the use cases of XML retrieval is useful when presenting the scope of the research. The taxonomy also helps us design more focused user studies that have an increased validity. In the current state, the taxonomy covers most common uses of applying Information Retrieval to XML documents. We are delighted to see how some of the use cases match the tasks of the INEX participants.
