Had a great time @dir_2019 yesterday, diving back into the IR domain while listening to some great works from Dutch and Belgian IR researchers. You can now also find my two cents @ https://t.co/zCgoeIVD9u

[DIR 2019 - Lightning talk Edition @dir_2019]

The work presented "Designing for the better by taking users into account" revolves around focus groups with news readers to study the aspect of control in news recommenders.

Last talk of #DIR2019 by Jaron Harambam, who opens with a great question. I know the answer 🙋! Interdisciplinary work between computer scientists and an anthropologist (Jaron), presented before at #RecSys2019!

[DIR 2019 - Lightning talk Edition @dir_2019]

Sorry, I think they already had the dataset, but study domain adaptation in this one (learning a model on dataset 1 (Enron) yields a bad model for dataset 2 (Avocado) due to domain specificity and jargon etc.). #DIR2019

[DIR 2019 - Lightning talk Edition @dir_2019]

Hello again @HAzarbonyad! Now presenting work done at @MSFTResearch, on commitment detection in emails! Where they crowd sourced a dataset for detecting when people express to commit to some task (think: "sure, I will [...]") #DIR2019

[DIR 2019 - Lightning talk Edition @dir_2019]

Next up in still a full house: @LiseStork on identifying scientific names in handwritten text, combining computer vision with entity linking, since entities play a central role in information needs of domain experts. Presented at #ECIR2019! Now at #DIR2019
