Summary

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 4th International Workshop of the Initiative for the Evaluation of XML Retrieval, INEX 2005, held at Dagstuhl Castle, Germany, in November 2005. The 41 revised full papers presented were carefully selected for presentation at the workshop and went through a subsequent round of careful reviewing and revision. The papers are organized in topical sections on methodology, multiple retrieval, ad-hoc retrieval, relevance feedback, natural language queries, heterogeneous retrieval, interactive retrieval, document mining, and multimedia retrieval.
