Anserini: Regressions for Wt10g
Typical indexing command:
nohup sh target/appassembler/bin/IndexCollection -collection TrecwebCollection \
-generator JsoupGenerator -threads 16 -input /path/to/wt10g -index \
lucene-index.wt10g.pos+docvectors+rawdocs -storePositions -storeDocvectors \
-storeRawDocs >& log.wt10g.pos+docvectors+rawdocs &
The directory /path/to/wt10g/ should be the root directory of Wt10g collection, containing a bunch of subdirectories, WTX001 to WTX104.
For additional details, see explanation of common indexing options.
Topics and qrels are stored in src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/, downloaded from NIST:
topics.451-500.txt: Topics 451-500 (TREC-9 Web Track)topics.501-550.txt: Topics 501-550 (TREC 2001 Web Track)qrels.451-500.txt: qrels (TREC-9 Web Track)qrels.501-550.txt: qrels (TREC 2001 Web Track)
After indexing has completed, you should be able to perform retrieval as follows:
nohup target/appassembler/bin/SearchCollection -topicreader Trec -index lucene-index.wt10g.pos+docvectors+rawdocs -topics src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/topics.451-550.txt -output run.wt10g.bm25.topics.451-550.txt -bm25 &
nohup target/appassembler/bin/SearchCollection -topicreader Trec -index lucene-index.wt10g.pos+docvectors+rawdocs -topics src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/topics.451-550.txt -output run.wt10g.bm25+rm3.topics.451-550.txt -bm25 -rm3 &
nohup target/appassembler/bin/SearchCollection -topicreader Trec -index lucene-index.wt10g.pos+docvectors+rawdocs -topics src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/topics.451-550.txt -output run.wt10g.bm25+ax.topics.451-550.txt -bm25 -axiom -axiom.beta 0.1 -rerankCutoff 20 -axiom.deterministic &
nohup target/appassembler/bin/SearchCollection -topicreader Trec -index lucene-index.wt10g.pos+docvectors+rawdocs -topics src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/topics.451-550.txt -output run.wt10g.ql.topics.451-550.txt -ql &

Evaluation can be performed using trec_eval:
eval/trec_eval.9.0.4/trec_eval -m map -m P.30 src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/qrels.451-550.txt run.wt10g.bm25.topics.451-550.txt
eval/trec_eval.9.0.4/trec_eval -m map -m P.30 src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/qrels.451-550.txt run.wt10g.bm25+rm3.topics.451-550.txt
eval/trec_eval.9.0.4/trec_eval -m map -m P.30 src/main/resources/topics-and-qrels/qrels.451-550.txt run.wt10g.bm25+ax.topics.451-550.txt
