On arXiv now is a draft chapter on "Generative Information Retrieval Evaluation", examining both GenIR evaluation and using generative for evaluation. Love to hear from you all of references we missed. Co-authored by @Marwah_k @claclarke @NegarEmpr arxiv.org/abs/2404.08137

💡Important PSA: are you a seasoned #RecSys veteran who already has their single-column ACM template ready to go? We're aligning formatting with other ACM conferences to use the double-column format! Spread the word so no one has to reformat in panic minutes before the deadline.

'More work, less talk' may be a day-to-day motto, but we actually are looking for talks now! The call for industry talks is out: recsys.acm.org/recsys24/call…. #RecSys2024 is looking for industry practitioners who tackle challenges and find solutions to real-problems. Share your work!

In the LLM-science discussion, I see a common misconception that science is a thing you do and that writing about it is separate and can be automated. I’ve written over 300 scientific papers and can assure you that science writing can’t be separated from science doing. Why? 1/18

Stellar relevance dataset combining classic LTR features with text queries and documents. Classic LTR with GBDT is still alive. From @macavaney @ntonellotto et al. Thanks to @srchvrs for pointing me to the paper and dataset. istella.ai/data/istella22-da… eprints.gla.ac.uk/268514/

Back home from #recsys2022? Then it's time to think about your next project and keep in mind that #ACM_TORS has currently three special issues with open calls relating to #trust, #CausalInference and #Evaluation of #recsys: dl.acm.org/journal/tors/call… #CfP
