Anserini: Regressions for TIPSTER Disks 1 & 2
This page describes regressions for ad hoc topics from the early TRECs, 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.
Typical indexing command:
nohup sh target/appassembler/bin/IndexCollection -collection TrecCollection -input /path/to/disk12 \
-index indexes/lucene-index.disk12.pos+docvectors+raw -generator DefaultLuceneDocumentGenerator -threads 16 \
-storePositions -storeDocvectors -storeRaw >& logs/log.disk12.pos+docvectors+rawdocs &
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.
Topics and qrels are stored in src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/
, downloaded from NIST:
