First International Workshop on Graph Search and Beyond (GSB’15)
SIGIR 2015, August 13, Santiago
http://humanities.uva.nl/~kamps/gsb15/
Submissions due: June 1 (any timezone).
* Final Call for Papers
Information on the Web is increasingly structured in terms of entities
and relations from large knowledge resources, geo-temporal references
and social network structure, resulting in a massive multidimensional
graph. This graph essentially unifies both the searcher and the
information resources that played a fundamentally different role in
traditional IR, and offers major new ways to access relevant
information. In services that rely on personalized information like
social networks, the graph plays an even more important role, in other
words: _you_ are the query.
We view the notion of `graph search' as searching information from your
personal point of view (you are the query) over a highly structured and
curated information space. This goes beyond the traditional two-term
queries and ten blue links results that users are familiar with,
requiring a highly interactive session covering both query formulation
and result exploration, and raises many open questions.
* We Need Your Help!
Help us shape the future of information access by increasing the depth
of analysis of today's systems:
- Submit a short 3+1-page research or position paper explaining your key
wishes or key points,
- and take actively part in the discussion at the Workshop.
What's a 3+1 page paper? We like short and focused contributions
highlighting your main point, claim, observation, finding, experiment,
project, etc, (roughly 3 pages of mainly text) but we also like clear
tables, graphs, and full citations (that's the "+1" page). So your
submission can up three pages, as long as max. 3 of them are narrative text.
The deadline is Monday June 1, 2015, further submission details are on
http://humanities.uva.nl/~kamps/gsb15/
We are looking forward to a productive, stimulating and fruitful
workshop day -- including an social event -- come join the discussion!
