The Information Retrieval Anthology

Today, we were happy to welcome @anja_reu and @juliusgonsior to our seminar to learn about current challenges in math retrieval/active learning: "Transformer Encoders for Mathematical Answer Retrieval" and "The Missing Piece of Active Learning Research: a Reference Benchmark".

@damiano10 Our🧞‍♂️'s issue tracker has capacity for more wishes, so don't hesitate to go beyond three: github.com/ir-anthology/i…

@IRanthology 🧞(2 wishes left) 🙌🏽

.@IRanthology, do you accept feature requests? 😊

@beck_fabian @asia_biega @841io @pure_suggest You also might want to talk to @martinpotthast , @bennostein @matthias_hagen and colleagues. They are building the IR Anthology of research paper (similar to the ACL anthology).

@barbara_plank We aspire to follow in their footsteps.

ACL Anthology is fantastic, and (I believe) rather unique for a research field. Now with a new feature: Copy & paste for BibTeX entries, great!

Awesome! We're interested to collect IR history in all its forms, so starting an image collection is certainly a sensible next step.

@arjunsubgraph Liek this?

@arjunsubgraph We hear you.

@ian_soboroff @albondarenko2 @maik_froebe Thanks! The definitions have been adjusted accordingly.

@IRanthology @albondarenko2 @maik_froebe The intention was the idea of train tracks, or conference tracks. Originally TREC only had a single “track” for the adhoc and routing tasks, but around TREC-4 it grew tracks so we could tackle more problems, esp. cross language IR which birthed NTCIR and CLEF.

The first rule of TREC is that Q0 is a literal “Q0”.

@ian_soboroff @albondarenko2 @maik_froebe That's why we ask, and, it's not really very visible.

@IRanthology @albondarenko2 @maik_froebe Pretty gutsy to publish definitions without sourcing them.

@albondarenko2 @ian_soboroff @maik_froebe While we're at it, is the explanation of the name "TREC track" also accurate?

@ian_soboroff @maik_froebe just added the Q0 definition to the @IRanthology glossary github.com/ir-anthology/i… hope it's correct

@IntranetFocus @bcs_irsg Thanks! github.com/ir-anthology/i…

@IRanthology @bcs_irsg irsg.bcs.org/informer/2021/…

I'm compiling a list of journals that publish IR research that will eventually appear in the rebuilt @bcs_irsg web site. If there any you feel deserve to be listed please DM me irsg.bcs.org/informer/2021/…

Poster Session 1 at #SIGIR2021 is coming to an end—but just for now. We'll be back for round two in 8 hours! If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to put them on Underline or join us in Gather.town (paper 1885).

Our #SIGIR2021 presentation for the Information Retrieval Anthology is currently live in Poster Session 1. Come join us in Gather.town (paper 1885 in the monday poster session). Q&A is also open on Underline.

@suzan @CharlotteHase @TheWebConf While you're waiting for Google, you might want to check out the IR Anthology. We already have the ECIR'21 papers and much more! ir.webis.de

@CharlotteHase @TheWebConf On a related topic: it seems that the ECIR'21 proceedings have not been indexed yet by Google Scholar... or is it just me? I have difficulties finding ECIR papers.

Does anyone know where the WebConf 2021 proceedings are available? I didn't find them on the ACM portal and on the @TheWebConf 2021 website the PDFs are password protected.

The #IRAnthology helps researchers find relevant literature in the IR field. You can already check it out at ir.webis.de "The Information Retrieval Anthology" at #SIGIR21 by @webis_de #ir #informationretrieval #search
