Multiliguality at NTCIR, and moving on ...
Tetsuya Sakai · 2010
NTCIR, often referred to as the Asian TREC, is eleven years old now. From NTCIR-1 (1999) to NTCIR-6 (2007), I was a task participant. From NTCIR-7 (2008), I started to serve as an organiser. From NTCIR-9 (2011), I will be serving as an NTCIR evaluation co-chair. In this talk, I will first look back on the past NTCIR rounds with a focus on crosslingual and multilingual tasks, e.g. Advanced Crosslingual Information Access (ACLIA). Then I will briefly discuss future plans for NTCIR which is currently going through drastic structural changes.
