Describe ways to improve retrieval performance in the TREC-style tasks in spoken document retrieval (SDR)

Discuss also the significance of each idea, either based on the presented TREC evaluation results or your own reasoning. Concentrate on the most significant ideas and things especially relevant to SDR rather than small speech recognition or information retrieval improvements in general.
