Final Call for Papers

01 Oct 2009: Paper submission deadline

We are seeking the submission of high-quality and original research papers that
have not been previously published and are not under review for another
conference or journal. Submissions will be reviewed by experts on the basis of
the originality of the work, the validity of the results, chosen methodology,
writing quality and the overall contribution to the field of Information
Retrieval. ECIR has traditionally had a strong student focus. Papers whose sole
or main author is a young researcher and in particular, postgraduate student or
postdoctoral researcher are especially welcome. Poster and demo submissions
addressing any of the areas identified in the conference topics are also
invited. Authors are encouraged to demonstrate work in progress and
late-breaking research results. Papers that demonstrate a high level of research
adventure or which break out of the traditional IR paradigms are particularly
welcome.

The Program Chairs invite for the submission of original research papers and
posters in all areas of Information Retrieval, including but not limited to:
- Enterprise Search, Intranet, Desktop, Adversarial IR
- Web IR
- Digital libraries
- IR Theory and Formal Models
- Web log analysis
- Distributed IR, peer to peer IR, Mobile IR, Fusion/Combination
- Multimedia IR
- Cross-language retrieval, Multilingual retrieval, Machine translation for IR
- Topic detection and tracking, Routing, Content-based filtering, Collaborative
filtering, Agents, Spam filtering
- Question answering, NLP for IR, Summarization, Lexical acquisition
- Text Data Mining
- Opinion Mining, Sentiment Analysis
- Text Categorization, Clustering
- Performance, Scalability, Architectures, Efficiency, Platforms
- Indexing, Query representation, Query reformulation, Structure-based
representation, XML
- Metadata, Social networking/tagging
- Evaluation methods and metrics, Experimental design, Test collection
- Interactive IR, User studies, User models, Task-based IR
- User interfaces and visualization
- Other domain-specific IR (e.g., Genomic IR, legal IR, IR for chemical structures)
- Blog and online-community search
- IR from noisy sources

Authors are invited to submit research papers presenting original, previously
unpublished, work on or before 1 October 2009. Submissions must be written in
English following the LNCS guidelines and must not exceed 12 pages including
references and figures. All papers will be refereed through blind peer review.
Accepted papers will be published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science
series. To allow a high degree of interaction, ECIR 2010 will have two
presentation formats for full papers. They will either be presented orally or in
poster format. The 12 page limit in the proceedings applies equally to these
papers. The proceedings will be distributed to all delegates at the Conference.
