Content

Information retrieval is a field concerned with the structure, analysis, organisation, storage, searching, and retrieval of information. We will discuss advanced aspects of these topics, focusing on recent state-of-the-art developments that have been made, especially concerning neural models. Particular attention will be paid to different classes of neural rankers and how they compare in terms of their effectiveness at ranking and their efficiency. The module will be evaluated in terms of a small research project and an oral exam, which we will prepare for throughout the module with in-class discussion sessions.
