Kurzfassung
This paper provides an overview of the cross-lingual expert
search pilot challenge as part of the cross-lingual expert search (CriES)
workshop collocated with the CLEF 2010 conference. We present a de-
tailed description of the dataset used in the challenge. This dataset is
a subset of an o�cial crawl of Yahoo! Answers published in the con-
text of the Yahoo! Webscope program. Further we describe the selection
process of the 60 multilingual topics used in the challenge. The Gold
Standard for these topics was created by human assessors who evalu-
ated pooled results of submitted runs. We present data showing that the
experts relevant for our chosen topics indeed speak di�erent languages.
This corroborates the fact that we need to design retrieval systems that
build on a cross-lingual notion of relevance for the expert retrieval task.
Finally we summarize the results of the four groups that participated in
this challenge using standard evaluation measures. Additionally we also
analyze the overlap of retrieved experts in the submitted runs.
