In this workshop, we will explore the alternative search framework of Proactive model (PIR). PIR methods seek to automatically anticipate a user's information needs from their current activities, context or previous engagements with a system. The idea for the PIR system is to support the user in completing their task without the user needing to actively engage with the IR system. In this workshop we aim to address the limitations of current PIR research and explore the opportunities for improved user experience using PIR as outlined above. The workshop aims to accomplish two goals: a) gather researchers from the IR and NLP communities to present their recent work relevant to PIR and explore future research directions, and b) provide a platform for new PhD students or early researchers to develop potential research activities in this area and build datasets that can be used for supporting their research.
Submission Guidelines
Papers submitted should be 4-6 pages of length of content (plus 1 additional page for references). Papers must be submitted in PDF according to the new ACM format published in ACM guidelines, selecting the generic sigconf template. The review process is single-blind and therefore submissions should contain author information. Paper should be uploaded via Easychair via this submission link.
