CALL FOR PAPERS

Evaluation of Information Filtering Systems in a Competitive
Intelligence Framework Workshop
22 May 2010
Held in conjunction with LREC 2010, Malta

Aims

The constant growth of publicly available information has entailed a
consequently similar growth in the research areas devoted to the
automated organization of this information. In particular, Information
Filtering systems have been developed to tackle the issues of many
applications of business intelligence, from mail categorization to news
routing and technology watch. However, the theoretically challenging
models of these systems have seldom been evaluated in real usage
context. Indeed, standard evaluation benchmarks usually introduce
artefacts that simplify the task. For instance, in the context of
competitive intelligence, systems must filter documents without any
global information on a “collection” but can use feedback from the user,
and must be efficient enough to deal with a real-time document stream.
Furthermore, with the increase of globalized access and availability of
the information, sources may be found in many languages, and the
multilinguality issue must also be considered. TREC Adaptive Filtering
Track and INFILE track at CLEF for multilingual information filtering
have tried to propose evaluation frameworks closer to the usage.

The goal of this workshop is to study different aspects of Information
Filtering Evaluation and to bring together researchers from the
community of Information Filtering to develop new evaluation frameworks
and confront current models with these new evaluation models.
Submissions are expected to propose new insights on evaluation
methodologies and resources for Information Filtering or to present
Information Filtering models that will meet the requirements of a real
usage evaluation (in particular, researchers that submit papers
presenting Information Filtering Models are encouraged to evaluate their
model using an existing benchmark such as the INFILE benchmark,
available at http://www.infile.org).

Topics

Both theoretical and practical research papers are welcome from both
research and industrial communities addressing the main workshop theme,
in any aspect including:
- Resources and methodologies for Evaluation of Information Filtering
Systems in real usage context
- New models for Information Filtering, that tackle one or several
issues of this kind of evaluation: efficiency, adaptability,
multilinguality, etc.
- Results of the Evaluation of Information Filtering Systems
- User studies of the use of Information Filtering Systems in
Competitive Intelligence

Submission information

Papers will be submitted to the workshop via the START LREC Conference
Manager, under https://www.softconf.com/lrec2010/InFile2010/
Authors should submit a PDF file of no more than 10 pages, following the
LREC conference formatting details. Papers will be reviewed by three
members of the Program Committee,
Accepted papers will be published in the workshop Proceedings.
When submitting a paper from the START page, authors will be asked to
provide essential information about resources (in a broad sense, i.e.
also technologies, standards, evaluation kits, etc.) that have been used
for the work described in the paper or are a new result of your research.
For further information on this new initiative, please refer to
