Abstract
This is a report on the eighth edition of the Conference and Labs of the Evaluation Forum (CLEF 2017), held in early September 2017, in Dublin, Ireland. CLEF was a four day event combining a Conference and an Evaluation Forum. The Conference featured keynotes by Leif Azzopardi and Vincent Wade, and presentation of 32 peer reviewed research papers covering a wide range of topics. The Evaluation Forum consisted to eight Labs and two workshops: eHealth, ImageCLEF, LifeCLEF, NEWSREEL, PAN, Cultural Microblog Contextualization, Early Risk Prediction on the Internet, Dynamic Search for Complex Tasks, Personalised Information Retrieval at CLEF, and Multimodal Spatial Role Labelling addressing a wide range of tasks, media, languages, and ways to go beyond standard test collections.
