32nd European Conference on Information Retrieval 2010, 28 – 31 March 2010, Milton Keynes, UK
EuropeanaConnect is organising a workshop on Multilinguality in Information Access Evaluation (MLIA) on the first conference day. The workshop covers four multilingual themes, each focused on multilingual aspects of content, users, tasks and evaluation methodology and aims at improving the multilingual user experience. Desired outcomes are the formulation of a workable “multilingual living laboratory” together with a roadmap with guidelines for future MLIA system evaluation. In addition, organizers envisage a special issue on evaluation of a multilingual information access system for a major information retrieval journal.
