Conference Themes

CIKM 2010 topics are in the broad areas of Databases, Information Retrieval, and Knowledge Management. CIKM 2010 also includes an Industry track. Each area is organized into tracks:

Information Retrieval:

  • Citation Analysis, Social Networks for IR
  • Domain-specific IR (e.g., Legal IR, Genome, Mobile IR, IR for chemical structures)
  • Filtering (e.g., Routing, Collaborative filtering, Topic tracking, Recommender systems)
  • Foundation of Information Retrieval (e.g., theory, ranking)
  • IR Architectures, Scalability and Efficiency
  • IR Evaluation
  • Language Specific IR (Multi-lingual, Cross-lingual, NLP, Question and Answer)
  • Machine Learning for IR
  • Multimedia IR (Audio, Speech, Video, Image)
  • Semi-Structured Information Retrieval
  • Distributed IR, Peer to Peer Search
  • User Modeling for IR, Search Personalization
  • Web Search, Advertising, Adversarial
  • Other topics related to IR (Privacy, Spam, Feature Engineering, et. al.)

Databases:

  • Access methods and indexing
  • Authorization, data privacy and security
  • Concurrency control and recovery
  • Data adaptability, reusability and quality
