S534 (L641): Information Retrieval: Theory and Practice
- The main objective of S534 is to introduce students to hands-on Information Retrieval (IR) research. Students will learn basic IR theory, examine cutting-edge IR research, and put together a research proposal that will serve as a blueprint for conducting TREC experiments.
- In addition to learning about IR in general, students will learn how to design a research project, develop insights into how theory can be applied in practice, and gain hands-on experiences with an experimental IR system called WIDIT.
- S534 is designed to prepare students to participate in TREC, which will involve system implementation, execution of retrieval experiments, and analysis of the experimental results.
