t-test? wilcoxon? bootstrap? sign? permutation? which one should IR practitioners employ? see our recently accepted paper (JASIST 2019 dc.fi.udc.es/~parapar/files…) and find out about this important issue #informationretrieval #evaluation #sigir

Today we will be presenting our work "PartisanLens: A Multilingual Dataset of Hyperpartisan and Conspiratorial Immigration Narratives in European Media". 📍 Poster Board #41 🕓 16:30–18:00 📌 Poster Hall 🤝 If you're around, come say hi! #EACL2026 #NLP

Utilizar el rastro digital como sistema de detección temprana de problemas de salud mental es posible. Pero la misma tecnología que puede detectar vulnerabilidad también puede explotarla. ✍️ @jparapar, @udc_gal  bit.ly/3Oth97n

Una reflexión personal: ¿y si la IA pudiera detectar a tiempo señales de malestar emocional en lo que escribimos? 👇 🔗theconversation.com/cuando-la-ia-e…

🥳 @itspalomap paper "Can LLMs Evaluate What They Cannot Annotate? Revisiting LLM Reliability in Hate Speech Detection" has been accepted at #LREC2026 w/ @davidoterof & @patrimrodilla See you in Palma 🇪🇸✈️ 🔗arxiv.org/abs/2512.09662 📀github.com/palomapiot/hat…

🎉 Our paper “PartisanLens: A Multilingual Dataset of Hyperpartisan and Conspiratorial Immigration Narratives in European Media” accepted at #EACL2026 🇲🇦 main conference. Work done with Michele Maggini @itspalomap @anxopvila and the @HYBRIDS_MSCA team! See you in Rabat! ✈️📍

Happy to see this work with @davidoterof accepted at #ECIR2026. A deceptively simple yet effective idea: improve PRF through selective relevance feedback using small LLMs, denoising the feedback set without polluting or overcomplicating the underlying PRF model.

O luns 1 de decembro no CIE Mans terá lugar a xornada “Onde queda a ética cando falamos de IA?”. @itspalomap achegará unha visión investigadora sobre o impacto positivo e negativo da IA na sociedade. Máis info e inscricións 👉 manspaideia.com/xornada-inteli…

Mañana @anxopvila participa en los webminars de la @sepln con una charla donde explicará los retos de la detección de depresión en redes sociales a través del lenguaje. Más información y registro aquí 👉 sepln.org/actualidad/eve…

🎓 Happy to share our latest work: “Beyond questions: Leveraging ColBERT for keyphrase search”. A study on improving dense retrieval for keyphrase-style queries using ColBERTKP. 🔗sciencedirect.com/science/articl… With @jparapar & @craig_macdonald

This week @wangxieric & @eliseobao presented our works at CIKM 2025. We unveiled: TalkDep: Clinically Grounded LLM Personas for Conversation-Centric Depression Screening and ReDSM5: A Reddit Dataset for DSM-5 Depression Detection. Great work! #CIKM2025 w/ @anxopvila

Just published @itspalomap's agentic software for supporting hate speech moderation, WATCHED is a Web Agent that combines LLMs, BERT-based classification, and explainable reasoning to assist moderators in identifying and understanding harmful content. 🔗 authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S23…

The Special Issue on LLMs as Evaluators in Springer Nature is now open for submissions. We welcome contributions on reliability and bias, human–LLM collaboration, efficiency, and applications across domains such as IR, NLP, healthcare, or social computing. link.springer.com/collections/cj…

🧠💬 How does depression "talk" on social media? @eliseobao’s work explores depression-related language on Reddit & Twitter using relevance-based models to better understand and detect mental health risks. 🔗sciencedirect.com/science/articl… w/ @anxopvila & @davidoterof

@jenkinsci I'm unable to access updates.jenkins.io from Spain, but the status page doesn't report any problems. Could you confirm?

Thanks for the invite to join the committee and a pleasure to come to A Coruña. Most importantly: congratulations to @JorgeGabin_ for your successful defense.

🎉 Very proud of @JorgeGabin_! Today, he successfully defended his PhD Thesis titled 'Improving the Search Experience on Complex Search Scenarios' 📚 Big thanks to @wangxieric, @patrimrodilla and @DavidELosada, for serving on the committee

Nuestro compañero Pedro ha sido incluido en la lista "A World's Top 2% Scientist List" de la @Stanford University. 🌍 Su trayectoria se sitúa entre el 2% de científicos más influyentes del mundo. Un hito que refleja el impacto de su trabajo. ¡Felicidades, Pedro! 🙌

Couldn’t be prouder! 🎉 @anxopvila has received @sepln’s Best NLP PhD Thesis Award, a huge honor and well-deserved recognition of his work. 👏🌟

Now at #CLEF2025 @UNED! 🚀 @anxopvila is presenting this year’s @earlyrisk Lab overview. Join us at the #eRisk sessions today and tomorrow to discover the great work of our participating teams!
