New CLEF pilots for 2006
September 27, 2005 10:03
This year's CLEF workshop was an inspiring
one. From my perspective, one the important
development s is that CLEF is moving away from
an almost exclusive focus on newspapers as the
main corpus on which to do evaluation, to also
include other types of textual data. Last year
it was decided to do a pilot task on
multilingual web retrieval, and this year we
decided to set up a pilot for question answering
against Wikipedia and a pilot on retrieval
against blogs. Stay tuned.

ILPS server back up
September 17, 2005 09:33
After a fatal crash of our old web server on Monday,
a new one has been up and running
since last night: thanks to Gilad, Jeroen,
Stephan, and Valentin for helping out. All of
the static pages have been restored, but not all
demos are fully functional as of yet, although
the mood related ones (Moodgrapher and Moodteller) are. The crash came
at a very unfortunate time (they always do),
with C|Net reporting on Moodgrapher just a
few days before and our largest sponsor, NWO,
contacting us on Thursday about using
Moodgrapher for PR purposes.
