ABSTRACT
Information retrieval or search plays an important role in a wide range of information management and electronic commerce tasks. In spite of the importance of information retrieval, search systems are often poorly designed from a human computer interaction perspective. The goal of this SIG is to articulate some of the opportunities and challenges in designing and evaluating highly interactive information retrieval systems.

Empirical Study of a 3D Visualization for Information Retrieval Tasks
Special issue: A survey of research questions for intelligent information systems in educationThere are many challenges to visualizing information including choosing between 2D and 3D interfaces, navigation and interaction methods, and selecting an appropriate level of detail. Visualizing information retrieval (IR) search results, including Web ...
Advanced Information Retrieval
In this paper we explore some of the most important areas of advanced information retrieval. In particular, we look at cross-lingual information retrieval, multimedia information retrieval and semantic-based information retrieval. Cross-lingual ...
Spoken query processing for interactive information retrieval
It has long been recognized that interactivity improves the effectiveness of Information Retrieval systems. Speech is the most natural and interactive medium of communication and recent progress in speech recognition is making it possible to build ...
