Abstract
In this paper, we describe our participation in the INEX 2011 Social Book Search track. We investigate the contribution of different types of document metadata, both social and controlled, and examine the effectiveness of re-ranking retrieval results using social features. We find that the best results are obtained using all available document fields and topic representations.
