The Workshop "Information Retrieval 2014"
held by the Special Interest Group on Information Retrieval of the
Gesellschaft für Informatik (German Computing Society)
September 8-10, 2014 University Aachen, Germany
The ubiquity of search systems has led to the application of information
retrieval technology in many new contexts (e.g. mobile and international)
and for new object types (products, patents, music, microblogs). To
develop appropriate products, basic knowledge on information retrieval
needs to be revisited and innovative approaches need to be applied, for
example by allowing for more user interaction or by taking the user's
situational context and the overall task into account. The quality of
information retrieval needs to be evaluated for each context. Large
evaluation initiatives respond to these challenges and develop new
benchmarks.
The workshop Information Retrieval 2014 of the Special Interest Group on
Information Retrieval within the German Gesellschaft für Informatik (GI)
provides a forum for scientific discussion and the exchange of ideas. The
workshop takes place in the context of the LWA "Learning, Knowledge and
Adaptivity" workshop week (LWA, Sep 8-10, 2014) at the University of
Aachen in Germany. This workshop continues a successful series of
conferences and workshops of the Special Interest Group on Information
Retrieval. The workshop addresses researchers and
practitioners from industry and universities. *Especially Doctorate and*
**
*Master students are encouraged to participate and discuss their ideas with*
**
*world renowned experts [*/Emphasis MM/*].* An Industry Session will 
stimulate the exchange
between information retrieval professionals and academics. The workshop is
expected to include German as well as English presentations.
