OVERVIEW
CLEF2010 is the continuation of the popular CLEF campaigns that have run =
for the past ten years. It covers a broad range of issues in the fields =
of multilingual and multimodal information access evaluation. It =
consists of two main parts: a peer-reviewed conference (20-21 September) =
on experimental evaluation, which innovates the CLEF tradition, and a =
series of labs (22-23 September), which continue the CLEF tradition of =
community-based evaluation and discussion on evaluation issues.
The CLEF2010 conference aims at advancing the evaluation of complex =
multimodal and multilingual information systems in order to support =
individuals, organizations, and communities who design, develop, employ, =
and improve such systems.
The growth of the Internet has been exponential with respect to the =
number of users, media, and languages used regularly for global =
information dissemination. Language and media barriers are no longer =
seen as inviolable and they are constantly crossed and mixed to provide =
content that can be accessed on a global scale within a multicultural =
and multilingual setting.
Users need to be able to co-operate and communicate across language and =
media boundaries, going beyond separate search in diverse =
media/languages and exploiting interactions between different languages =
and media.
Experimental evaluation - both laboratory and interactive - is a key to =
fostering the development of multilingual and multimodal information =
systems that address increasingly complex information needs.
The CLEF2010 labs continue the CLEF tradition of community-based =
benchmarking and will complement these with workshops on emerging issues =
in evaluation methodology.=20
