FIRE 2017

Forum for Information Retrieval Evaluation

Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore

8th - 10th December

The 9th meeting of Forum for Information Retrieval Evaluation 2017 will be held in Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India. Started in 2008 with the aim of building a South Asian counterpart for TREC, CLEF and NTCIR, FIRE has since evolved continuously to meet the new challenges in multilingual information access. It has expanded to include new domains like plagiarism detection, legal information access, mixed script information retrieval and spoken document retrieval to name a few.

Continuing the trend started in 2015, FIRE will consist of a peer reviewed conference track along with evaluation tasks. We invite full and short papers from information retrieval, natural language processing and related domains. Please refer to the call for papers or submission guidelines for more information.

Note: The submission deadline for full and short paper has been extended to September 3, 2017
