 EVIA 2007 (NTCIR-6 Pre-Meeting Workshop), May 15, 2007 @ NII, Tokyo
 FINAL CALL FOR POSTER SUBMISSIONS (DUE MARCH 15, 2007)

The First International Workshop on Evaluating Information Access (EVIA
2007)
will take place on May 15, 2007 (DAY 1 of the NTCIR-6 Workshop Meeting) at
National Institute of Informatics, Tokyo, Japan.

At EVIA, regular papers selected by the Program Commitee (*)
as well as invited papers (including one by Ian Soboroff at NIST) will be
presented.
In addition, we plan to have a POSTER SESSION, and the submission deadline
is approaching!

We will accept four-page posters reporting late-breaking results on IR
evaluation. Unlike the regular papers, the posters
will NOT be reviewed. Anyone (NTCIR participants and non-participants) can
submit a poster, but participants should make sure
that the content of the poster is different from that of the NTCIR site
report. We welcome poster submissions addressing one
or more of the following topics:
Test collections, their formation, evaluation metrics and evaluation
environments
Cross-conference comparison: NTCIR, CLEF, TREC, DUC and others
Evaluation of specific information access tasks, e.g., for education and
training
Evaluation of query-specific approaches
Evaluation of multilingual, multimedia and/or mobile information access
Real-world search topics and/or evaluation in vivo
Novel information access tasks and their evaluation

- EVIA 2007: May 15, 2007 (NII, Tokyo)
