A Corpus of Realistic Known-Item Topics with Associated Web Pages in the ClueWeb09

Known-item finding is the task of finding a previously seen item. Such items may range from visited websites to received emails but also read books or seen movies. Most of the research done on known-item finding focuses on web or email retrieval and is done on proprietary corpora not publically available. Public corpora usually are rather artificial as they contain automatically generated known-item queries or queries formulated by humans actually seeing the known-item.
