RESUMO
This paper presents five document retrieval systems for a small (few thousands) and domain specific corpora (weekly peer-reviewed medical journals published in French) as well as an evaluation methodology to quantify the models performance. The proposed methodology does not rely on external annotations and therefore can be used as an ad hoc evaluation procedure for most document retrieval tasks. Statistical models and vector space models are empirically compared on a synthetic document retrieval task. For our dataset size and specificities the statistical approaches consistently performed better than its vector space counterparts.
