Laval University at TREC Dynamic Domain 2016: Subtopic extraction focused on Named Entities

This paper describes the results submitted by Laval University to the TREC 2016 Dynamic Domain track. We submitted five runs. For this year we decided to focus around Named Entities to interpret the subtopics. Named Entities are one of the two types of queries we identified in this challenge, the other being queries about concepts. We describe in this paper our experiments to determine if targeting this type of query with a specific pipeline can lead to a global improvement of the system by taking into account the specificity of the queries.
