5/ 📈 Key benefits:
✅ Learns a more robust relevance estimation function by modeling the joint distribution over features + labels
✅ Matches inference cost of discriminative models
✅ Outperforms discriminative baselines on standard LTR datasets in our experiments.

1/ Excited to share that PeerPrism from https://t.co/B3yCv1pm8N has been accepted at #SIGIR2026
A benchmark for reality of today’s peer review, where reviewers draft the reviews, LLMs refine it, and “was this written by AI?” is no longer a yes/no question.

I’ve been dreaming of my first @ACMSIGIR since I became a student.
Seems the universe has other plans:
📍 2024 (Washington DC) 🚫 Travel Ban
📍 2026 (Melbourne) 🚫 Travel Ban
📍 2027 (Silicon Valley) 🚫 Travel Ban
It looks like I’ll have to wait until 2028😮💨.

Thrilled to share that I successfully defended my https://t.co/Wd6pUX616l. thesis!
Grateful to my supervisors(@FattaneZ and @ebrahim_bagheri) and committee for their support and insightful feedback. 🎓
Now the time for our second keynote speaker, Johanne Trippas @JTrippas, sharing her perspective on “Conversational Information Systems for a Proactive Future: Beyond Ten Blue Links” in our ProActLLM workshop.
#proactllm@cikm2025
Earlier today, we had a very successful panel discussion on proactive conversational information seeking with active discussions from both panel members and audience.
Thanks to the panel members for their support: @ppsunrise@NegarEmpr@ydeng_dandy@merrafelice@ChuanMg
I’ll be presenting our work “Conv2Title: A Conversation-to-Title Framework for Proactive Search in Conversations” at the Proactive LLMs Workshop (ProActLLM) today @cikm2025 at 11:00, and I’ll be on the panel discussion at 11:30.
