Venue: Bangi Resort Hotel, Malaysia
EDAS Submission: https://edas.info/N35080

CAMP 2026 welcomes academics, researchers, practitioners, and industry professionals to submit original and unpublished research contributions. The conference aims to bring together scholars and innovators actively engaged in both theoretical foundations and practical applications of Information Retrieval, Knowledge Management, and Data Science. CAMP 2026 provides an international forum for advancing methods, systems, and applications that enable effective knowledge discovery, intelligent information access, and data-driven decision-making. Authors are invited to contribute high-quality papers addressing current challenges and emerging opportunities across these interconnected domains. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following areas:

A. Information Retrieval
IR theory, retrieval models, and ranking
Query analysis and web search
Scalable indexing, crawling, and search architecture (cloud, distributed, edge)
Green IR and energy-efficient search systems
Machine learning, deep learning, and neural IR
Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG)
Recommendation systems (including interactive and conversational)
Open-domain question answering and conversational IR
Personalised and user-adaptive search
Evaluation methods, benchmarks, and user-centric IR studies
Fairness, Accountability, Transparency, Ethics, and Explainability (FATE) in IR
Multi-modal and cross-modal IR (e.g., text-to-image/video)
Cross-lingual and low-resource IR
Real-time, event-based, and social media IR
Domain-specific applications (e.g., legal, biomedical, education)
