Abstract

The infusion of external knowledge bases into IR models can provide enhanced ranking results and greater interpretability, offering substantial advancements in the field. The first workshop on Knowledge-Enhanced Information Retrieval (KEIR @ ECIR 2024) will serve as a platform to bring together researchers from academia and industry to explore and discuss various aspects of knowledge-enhanced information retrieval systems, such as models, techniques, data collection and evaluation. The workshop aims to not only deliberate upon the advantages and hurdles intrinsic to the development of knowledge-enhanced pretrained language models, IR models and recommendation models but also to facilitate in-depth discussions concerning the same.
