Abstract

For the CLEF 2002 campaign, Eurospider participated in the multilingual and German monolingual tasks. Our main focus was on trying new merging strategies for our multilingual experiments. In this paper, we describe the setup of our system, the characteristics of our experiments, and give an analysis of the results.
