ECIR 2020 – Delivering a virtual conference

By Joao Magalheis on 10th May 2020

ECIR 2020 – The role of knowledge in supporting IR applications

By Andy Macfarlane on 10th May 2020

This was the role of explicit knowledge in support applications, in particular the role of ontologies. There are many search technologies that can benefit from ontologies e.g. entity linking and recognition where […]
