Call For Papers - CFP

Call for Papers

We are seeking the submission of high-quality and original research papers that have not been previously published and are not under review for another conference or journal. Submissions will be reviewed by experts on the basis of the originality of the work, the validity of the results, chosen methodology, writing quality and the overall contribution to the field of Information Retrieval. ECIR has traditionally had a strong student focus. Papers whose sole or main author is a young researcher and in particular, postgraduate student or postdoctoral researcher are especially welcome. Papers that demonstrate a high level of research adventure or which break out of the traditional IR paradigms are particularly welcome.

The Program Chairs invite for the submission of original research papers and posters in all areas of Information Retrieval, including but not limited to:

Enterprise Search, Intranet, Desktop, Adversarial IR

Web IR

Digital libraries

IR Theory and Formal Models

Web log analysis

Distributed IR, peer to peer IR, Mobile IR, Fusion/Combination

Multimedia IR

Cross-language retrieval, Multilingual retrieval, Machine translation for IR

Topic detection and tracking, Routing, Content-based filtering, Collaborative filtering, Agents, Spam filtering
