description

This paper describes the participation of the MIRACLE team at the ImageCLEF Photographic Retrieval task of CLEF 2008. We succeeded in submitting 41 runs. Obtained results from text-based retrieval are better than content-based as previous experiments in the MIRACLE team campaigns [5, 6] using different software. Our main aim was to experiment with several merging approaches to fuse text-based retrieval and content-based retrieval results, and it happened that we improve the text-based baseline when applying one of the three merging algorithms, although visual results are lower than textual ones.
