Abstract

Structured document retrieval allows for the retrieval of document fragments as well as for the exploitation of relationships between document parts for identifying relevant information. This type of retrieval is studied at INEX,the initiative for the evaluation of XML retrieval. The INEX multimedia track provides an evaluation platform for the retrieval of multimedia document fragments.The track focuses on using the structure of the document to extract,relate, and combine the relevance of different multimedia fragments. This paper details the setup of this track. We discuss the document collections,the topics,the tasks and the assessment procedure. In addition results of the first running of this track in 2005 are summarised.
