Hiemstra, D.

Kraaij, W.
In this paper we present the language modeling approach to information retrieval as a toolbox to systematically combine information from different sources. Four TREC subtasks (Ad Hoc, Entry Page, Adaptive Filtering and Cross-language) are used to illustrate the application of language models to different information retrieval problems.
