This lecture covers the concept of term-offset indices in inverted files, where terms are stored with their offsets in documents. It explains how to list documents satisfying specific queries and merge term-offset inverted lists. Examples include queries with SLOP/X operators and merging procedures. The lecture also discusses relevance feedback solutions and distributed information retrieval techniques.
