PROMISE Retreat Report Prospects and Opportunities for Information Access Evaluation
- 2013
-
In: ACM SIGIR Forum. - : Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). - 0163-5840 .- 1558-0229. ; 46:2, s. 60-84

Journal article (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The PROMISE network of excellence organized a two-days brainstorming workshop on 30th and 31st May 2012 in Padua, Italy, to discuss and envisage future directions and perspectives for the evaluation of information access and retrieval systems in multiple languages and multiple media. This document reports on the outcomes of this event and provides details about the six envisaged research lines: search applications; contextual evaluation; challenges in test collection design and exploitation; component-based evaluation; ongoing evaluation; and signal-aware evaluation. The ultimate goal of the PROMISE retreat is to stimulate and involve the research community along these research lines and to provide funding agencies with effective and scientifically sound ideas for coordinating and supporting information access research.

Reality Check – Conducting Real World Studies

Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Information retrieval and recommender systems are deployed in real world environments. Therefore, to get a real feeling for the system, we should study their characteristics in “real world studies”. This raises the question: What does it mean for a study to be realistic? Does it mean the user has to be a real user of the system or can anyone participate in a study of the system? Does it mean the system needs to be perceived as realistic by the user? Does it mean the manipulations need to be perceived as realistic by the user?

Different approaches to automated classification : is there an exchange of ideas?

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Automated classification of text has been studied by three major research communities, machine learning, information retrieval, and library science, each taking a different approach. The paper aims to study to what a degree the three communities explore others’ ideas, methods, findings. To that purpose we studied direct links (do authors from one community cite authors from another) and indirect links (using bibliographic coupling). Although the study is based on a small sample of 148 papers, the results indicate that the three communities do not exchange ideas to a great extent.

Report on EuroHCIR 2013 : the 3rd European Workshop on Human-Computer Interaction and Information Retrieval
- 2013

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This paper reports on the 3rd European Workshop on Human-Computer Interaction and Information Retrieval co-located with the 36th international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval, held in Dublin, Ireland, August 1, 2013. The workshop gathered 32 participants with 6 papers for oral presentations and 8 short papers with poster presentations covering a good range of topics and research questions in the intersection of HCI and IR. Group exercises in connection to the oral presentations resulted in a set of important aspects to be considered in future research in HCI and IR.

Young maternal age at delivery is associated with asthma in adult offspring
- 2007

In: Respiratory Medicine. - : Elsevier BV. - 0954-6111 .- 1532-3064. ; 101:7, s. 1431-1438

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Objective: Some studies have shown an association between lower maternal age at delivery and increased asthma in children and young adults. It is unclear whether this represents an effect of maternal ageing or a protective effect of siblings. In a North-European population based study, we investigated whether mother's age at delivery was associated with risk for asthma and hay fever in adult offspring, taking into account relevant confounders. Methods: A total of 16,190 subjects (74%) aged 23-54yr answered a postal questionnaire in a follow-up of the European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS I). Results: The associations of maternal age at delivery with hay fever, respiratory symptoms and diagnosed asthma were analysed using logistic regression, adjusting for household size, dwelling, parental education, centre, gender, adult hay fever, smoking, age and body mass index (BMI). The adjusted odds ratios (95% CI) for wheeze with breathlessness, wheeze without a cold and asthma in the offspring were 0.94 (0.90-0.99), 0.89 (0.86-0.94) and 0.92 (0.88-0.97), respectively, per 5yr increase in maternal age. No heterogeneity between centres was found (p = 0.84). The estimates remained similar in sub-sample analyses when adjusting for siblings, maternal smoking (n = 3109) and for birth weight (n = 1686). Hay fever was more common among those with the youngest and oldest mothers. Conclusions: In this large North-European multi-centre study, asthma was less common with increasing maternal age. This effect was consistent between centres and persisted with adjustment for several potential confounders, suggesting that the association may possibly be explained by biological changes related to maternal ageing.
