@imsure318 @ShandongUni1901 @70LuonHfXrUWIz3 @zhaochun_ren @TMLeiden @LIACS @UniLeiden @emnlpmeeting The paper introduces Adaptive Context Compression for #RAG (ACC-RAG), a way to teach the #AI system to “skim smartly” — similar to how people don’t read every single word in an article but focus on the most relevant parts bloom.bg/3XahMU9 #EMNLP2025 (2/2)

#AI researcher @imsure318 is an organizer of today's 2nd Workshop on Financial Information Retrieval in the Era of #GenerativeAI. FinIR 2025 addresses the challenges of using #GenAI in finance through advanced #InformationRetrieval techniques. bloom.bg/4lGqHrk #SIGIR2025

Last keynote before wrapping up from Prof Rex Ying on RAG for Time Series.

Happenging in Meeting Room PALLADIO B now

Prof. Yongjae Lee is giving a keynote on LLMs for portfolio optimization.

@iadh is kicking off the first keynote on assets recommendations.

At #SIGIR2025 today (10:30 AM CEST), @UvA_Amsterdam’s @MarieHendriksen & @mdr & Bloomberg's @imsure318, @ridhorei, @myahya & @edgarmeij present “Benchmark Granularity and Model Robustness for Image-Text Retrieval: A Reproducibility Study” bloom.bg/4kzweyf (1/3)

At #SIGIR2025 today (10:30 AM CEST), @UvA_Amsterdam’s @MarieHendriksen & @mdr & Bloomberg's @imsure318, @ridhorei, @myahya & @edgarmeij present “Benchmark Granularity and Model Robustness for Image-Text Retrieval: A Reproducibility Study” bloom.bg/4eNXdVK (1/3)

@UvA_Amsterdam @MarieHendriksen @mdr @imsure318 @ridhorei @myahya @edgarmeij @SIGIRConf The paper's authors explored how robust vision-language models in real-world #multimodalIR systems are to textual perturbations by systematically testing models like ALIGN & CLIP, revealing surprising sensitivity to word order & granularity in benchmarks #SIGIR2025 (2/3)

@UvA_Amsterdam @MarieHendriksen @mdr @imsure318 @ridhorei @myahya @edgarmeij @SIGIRConf "Benchmark Granularity and Model Robustness for Image-Text Retrieval: A Reproducibility Study," by @MarieHendriksen & @mdr (@UvA_Amsterdam) & our #AI engineers @imsure318, @ridhorei, @myahya & @edgarmeij, can be read in the #SIGIR2025 Proceedings at bloom.bg/40fw5sL (3/3)

Researchers and engineers from @Bloomberg's #AI Engineering group co-authored 3 papers at #SIGIR2025 & helped co-organize the #FinIR workshop; learn more about their research & how their work will advance the state-of-the-art in #informationretrieval bloom.bg/44wckje (1/2)

@MarieHendriksen @UvA_Amsterdam @mdr @pgroth @maria_heuss @HarrieOos Congratulations!!

🎓 Happy to share that I successfully defended my PhD in Multimodal Machine Learning for Information Retrieval, at @UvA_Amsterdam last Friday! Grateful to my supervisors @mdr and @pgroth, and to @maria_heuss and @HarrieOos for their support as paranymphs! 🎉 (1/2)

@ashimgupta95 @keviv9 @imsure318 @emnlpmeeting @BlackboxNLP @UUtah @UtahNLP @cogcomp @Penn They'll be presenting their paper, "Enhancing #QuestionAnswering on Charts Through Effective Pre-training Tasks," during today's @BlackboxNLP poster sessions (11 AM & 3:30 PM EST). Their paper can be found in the #EMNLP2024 Proceedings: bloom.bg/3O36cG8 #AI #NLProc

During today's 7th BlackboxNLP Workshop at #EMNLP2024, @ashimgupta95, @keviv9, @imsure318, Yujie He, Ning Zhang & Shalin Shah highlight how three simple pre-training tasks can improve the performance of chart-based #QuestionAnswering systems bloom.bg/48ZS5uV #NLProc #AI

@imsure318 @ShandongU @UESTC1956 @LIACS @aclmeeting @zhaochun_ren @sunweiwei12 @jayren3 The "Generate-then-Ground in Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Multi-hop Question Answering" paper can be found at bloom.bg/3WHqAjT #ACL2024NLP #QuestionAnswering

#AI researcher @imsure318 worked with @ShandongU, @UESTC1956 & @LIACS researchers on "Generate-then-Ground in Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Multi-hop Question Answering;" it will be presented in today's poster session @aclmeeting (10:30 AM ICT) #ACL2024NLP #QuestionAnswering
