Published: 17 January 2019 Publication History

Abstract

The 12th Russian Summer School in Information Retrieval (RuSSIR 2018) was held on August 27- 31 in Kazan, Russia.1 The school was co-organized by Kazan Federal University2 and the Russian Information Retrieval Evaluation Seminar (ROMIP).
Starting from 2007, the RuSSIR school series has become an internationally recognized venue [1]-[5]. Previously, RuSSIRs have taken place in Yekaterinburg, Taganrog, Petrozavodsk, Voronezh, Saint Petersburg, Yaroslavl, Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod, and Saratov. Over these years, RuSSIR courses have been taught by world-renowned researchers and industry leaders in Information Retrieval and related areas.
This year, we had a record number of around 120 participants in total (counting in students, teachers, organizers, and sponsors' representatives); there were 87 students attending RuSSIR 2018. While the majority of participants were from various Russian universities, there were also representatives from the USA, Spain, Ireland, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Australia, the Netherlands, Estonia, China, Germany, Italy, Denmark, Austria, and Finland. School participation was free of charge due to support from the school's sponsors. In addition, 10 international students and two teachers received travel support from the BCS IRSG and ACM SIGIR.
