|---|---|---|
This paper analyses an approach made to the development of a textual image retrieval system by the University of Alicante using IR-n, a text-based information retrieval (IR) system. With only a minimal amount of adaptations to the features of this task, our system has obtained precision results above the mean average of participants for ImageCLEF07 both for English (0.1604 vs 0.1388) and for Spanish (0.1482 vs 0.1450). For German, our results were below the mean (0.0991 vs 0.1331), which could be due to the fact that our system does not incorporate a splitter for the treatment of this agglutinative language. These results are obtained without the incorporation of image recovery dominion techniques. The error analysis shows us that there is still a considerable amount of work to do concerning text-based techniques in order to improve the system, but also shows that the key to successful participation in this task is to mix text and image resources. |
