X has - rather quietly - rolled out a new way to provide researchers access to public data on X, as required per article 40.12 of the Digital Services Act. How can you do get access? See the thread below 👇#dsa

Our latest article on "Developing and evaluating a gamified information retrieval system for Generation Z" is finally online. authors.elsevier.com/c/1iAvf2eSLIoR… #gamification

The SIGIR Student Travel Grant Program will be offering Student Travel Grants for students presenting their accepted contributions at #chiir2024. Paper notifications are due on December 12th and applications for travel grants can be made between December 13th and December 28th

I am sure there is a lot of anticipation about the #chiir2024 notifications today. DC notifications have gone out, we anticipate the remaining notifications should go out after 6pm (GMT). Should hopefully save you hitting refresh between now and then

Haiming Liu and Christine Bauer conducted a great PhD Consortium at #CIKM2023. Find the report and some takeaway messages here: sigir.org/wp-content/upl…. Thanks to everyone involved, particularly the students!

I’m really looking forward to speaking at #chiir2024, and honoured to have been invited to speak. I was always an ACM SIGCHI person working in an ACM SIGIR world, but I found a community of likeminded people during my PhD and it led to great things, inc the ACM CHIIR 2025 conference.

Likewise, Yunhyong Kim and Zoe Bartliff. Glad to see this work published now 😀

We are hiring. If you are looking for a PhD or Postdoc position and want to work on the intersection of Human-Centered AI and Data Science, apply! uni-koblenz.de/de/karriere/st…

It’s beginning to look a lot like CHIIRmas! #chiir2024 ACM CHIIR 2025

Was on my way to Sheffield for ACM CHIIR 2025, but I seem to have missed the exit. Luckily still beautifully on time to run normalize-workshop.bsky.social with Lien Michiels, this time as a Tutorial, tomorrow at 14:00 in Halifax Hall!

Calm before the storm #chiir2024

The registration desk is ready 😀 #chiir2024

Anyone at #chiir2024 interested in a PhD or Postdoc position in Germany? Let’s have a chat :-)

Thank you #chiir2024

And we’re done with #chiir2024. Thank you all for the productive discussions during the past few days. Over to you, #chiir2025

A chance to become my academic grandchild 🎓

Love information retrieval? A few days left to apply for our research position at WeST – Uni-Koblenz #ECIR2024

I really love the idea of MonsterCLEF at #clef2024! monsterclef.dei.unipd.it Makes so much sense but also hard to pull off! A meta-challenge organized so that task-specific LLMs run against diverse tasks without adapatation. New test data for each task, so no data leakage!

On arXiv now is a draft chapter on "Generative Information Retrieval Evaluation", examining both GenIR evaluation and using generative for evaluation. Love to hear from you all of references we missed. Co-authored by Marwah Alaofi Charlie Clarke Negar Arabzadeh arxiv.org/abs/2404.08137

Die Universität Koblenz hat sich dazu entschlossen, ihre Aktivitäten auf X zu beenden. Wir werden weiterhin über unsere anderen Kanäle kommunizieren und freuen uns, wenn Sie mit uns in Verbindung bleiben. #eXit
