Evaluating XML retrieval effectiveness at INEX

The INitiative for the Evaluation of XML retrieval (INEX) was set up in 2002 to establish an infrastructure and provide means, in the form of large test collections and appropriate scoring methods, for evaluating the effectiveness of content-oriented XML retrieval systems. This report provides an overview of the evaluation methodology developed in INEX from 2002 to 2006.
