Anserini Regressions: TIPSTER Disks 1 & 2

Models: various bag-of-words approaches

This page describes regressions for ad hoc topics from TREC 1-3, which use TIPSTER Disks 1 & 2. The exact configurations for these regressions are stored in this YAML file. Note that this page is automatically generated from this template as part of Anserini's regression pipeline, so do not modify this page directly; modify the template instead.

From one of our Waterloo servers (e.g., orca), the following command will perform the complete regression, end to end:

python src/main/python/run_regression.py --index --verify --search --regression disk12

Indexing

Typical indexing command:

target/appassembler/bin/IndexCollection \
  -collection TrecCollection \
  -input /path/to/disk12 \
  -index indexes/lucene-index.disk12/ \
  -generator DefaultLuceneDocumentGenerator \
  -threads 16 -storePositions -storeDocvectors -storeRaw \
  >& logs/log.disk12 &

The directory /path/to/disk12/ should be the root directory of TIPSTER Disks 1 & 2, i.e., ls /path/to/disk12/ should bring up subdirectories like doe, wsj.

For additional details, see explanation of common indexing options.

Retrieval

Topics and qrels are stored here, which is linked to the Anserini repo as a submodule. They are downloaded from NIST:

After indexing has completed, you should be able to perform retrieval as follows:

target/appassembler/bin/SearchCollection \
  -index indexes/lucene-index.disk12/ \
