Christof Monz and Maarten de Rijke

In: Proceedings of Tenth Text Retrieval Conference (TREC-10), 2001, pp. 513-522.

We describe our participation in the TREC-10 Question Answering track.All our runs used the Tequesta system; we provide a detailed account of the natural language processing and inferencing techniques that are part of Tequesta. We also summarize and discuss our results, which concern both the main task and the list task.
