This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th
International Conference of the CLEF Initiative, CLEF 2018, jointly
organized by Avignon, Marseille and Toulon universities and held in
Avignon, France, in September 2018. The conference has a clear
focus on experimental information retrieval with special attention
to the challenges of multimodality, multilinguality, and
interactive search ranging from unstructured to semi structures and
structured data. The 13 papers presented in this volume were
carefully reviewed and selected from 39 submissions. Many papers
tackle the medical ehealth and ehealth multimedia retrieval
challenges, however there are many other topics of research such as
document clustering, social biases in IR, social book search,
personality profiling. Further this volume presents 9 "best of the
labs" papers which were reviewed as a full paper submission with
the same review criteria. The labs represented scientific
challenges based on new data sets and real world problems in
multimodal and multilingual information access. In addition to
this, 10 benchmarking labs reported results of their yearlong
activities in overview talks and lab sessions. The papers address
all aspects of information access in any modularity and language
and cover a broad range of topics in the field of multilingual and
multimodal information access evaluation.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th
Information Retrieval Societies Conference, AIRS 2012, held in
Tianjin, China, in December 2012. The 22 full papers and 26 poster
presentations included in this volume were carefully reviewed and
selected from 77 submissions. They are organized in topical
sections named: IR models; evaluation and user studies; NLP for IR;
machine learning and data mining; social media; IR applications;
multimedia IT and indexing; collaborative and federated search; and
the poster session.
Search for information is no longer exclusively limited within the
native language of the user, but is more and more extended to other
languages. This gives rise to the problem of cross-language
information retrieval (CLIR), whose goal is to find relevant
information written in a different language to a query. In addition
to the problems of monolingual information retrieval (IR),
translation is the key problem in CLIR: one should translate either
the query or the documents from a language to another. However,
this translation problem is not identical to full-text machine
translation (MT): the goal is not to produce a human-readable
translation, but a translation suitable for finding relevant
documents. Specific translation methods are thus required. The goal
of this book is to provide a comprehensive description of the
specific problems arising in CLIR, the solutions proposed in this
area, as well as the remaining problems. The book starts with a
general description of the monolingual IR and CLIR problems.
Different classes of approaches to translation are then presented:
approaches using an MT system, dictionary-based translation and
approaches based on parallel and comparable corpora. In addition,
the typical retrieval effectiveness using different approaches is
compared. It will be shown that translation approaches specifically
designed for CLIR can rival and outperform high-quality MT systems.
Finally, the book offers a look into the future that draws a strong
parallel between query expansion in monolingual IR and query
translation in CLIR, suggesting that many approaches developed in
monolingual IR can be adapted to CLIR. The book can be used as an
introduction to CLIR. Advanced readers can also find more technical
details and discussions about the remaining research challenges in
the future. It is suitable to new researchers who intend to carry
out research on CLIR. Table of Contents: Preface / Introduction /
Using Manually Constructed Translation Systems and Resources for
CLIR / Translation Based on Parallel and Comparable Corpora / Other
Methods to Improve CLIR / A Look into the Future: Toward a Unified
View of Monolingual IR and CLIR? / References / Author Biography
