This paper describes the SoVideo broadcast news retrieval system for Mandarin Chinese. The system is based on technologies such as large-vocabulary continuous speech recognition for Mandarin Chinese, automatic story segmentation, and information retrieval. Until now, the database consisted of 177 hours of broadcast news, which yielded 3264 stories by automatic story segmentation. We discuss the development of the retrieval system, and the evaluation of each component and the retrieval system.
