Abstract
An empirical study has been conducted investigating the relationship between the performance of a generative language model in terms of perplexity and the corresponding information retrieval performance obtained. It is observed, on the corpora considered, that the perplexity of the language model has a systematic relationship with the achievable precision recall performance.
