Evaluation tracks oer valuable opportunities to measure scientic and technological advances. Spinque approaches challenges as the MediaEval Rich Speech Recognition task with the additional goal of developing solutions that can easily transferred from academic labs to industry. The system used during this evaluation was obtained with minimal eort and no manual optimisation and yet it provides a reasonably good baseline to improve upon. More importantly, it is by nature an extensible approach, based on the concept of declarative search strategies, rather than an ad-hoc search system.
