Spellchecking for Children in Web Search: a Natural Language Interface Case-study
Given the more widespread nature of natural language interfaces, it is increasingly important to understand who are accessing those interfaces, and how those interfaces are being used.
A Multi-Perspective Learning to Rank Approach to Support Children's Information Seeking in the Classroom
We introduce a novel re-ranking model that aims to augment the functionality of standard search engines to support classroom search activities for children (ages 6 to 11).
Conversational Agents and Children: Let Children Learn
Using online information discovery as a case study, in this position paper we discuss the need to design, develop, and deploy (conversational) agents that can -- non-intrusively -- guide children in their quest for online resources rather than simply finding resources for them.
Matching Consumer Fairness Objectives & Strategies for RecSys
The last several years have brought a growing body of work on ensuring that recommender systems are in some sense consumer-fair -- that is, they provide comparable quality of service, accuracy of representation, and other effects to their users.
Let's Learn from Children: Scaffolding to Enable Search as Learning in the Educational Environment
In this manuscript, we argue for the need to further look at search as learning (SAL) with children as the primary stakeholders.
Using Conversational Artificial Intelligence to Support Children's Search in the Classroom
Further, we discuss preliminary ideas on strategies for evaluation.
The Impact of User Demographics and Task Types on Cross-App Mobile Search
Recent developments in the mobile app industry have resulted in various types of mobile apps, each targeting a different need and a specific audience.
To Infinity and Beyond! Accessibility is the Future for Kids' Search Engines
Seminal works have studied how children use mainstream search engines, as well as how to design and evaluate custom search engines explicitly for children.
All Together Now: Teachers as Research Partners in the Design of Search Technology for the Classroom
In the classroom environment, search tools are the means for students to access Web resources.
CASTing a Net: Supporting Teachers with Search Technology
In this paper, we argue for the need to broaden the research focus to include teachers and how search technology can aid them.
Evaluating Information Retrieval Systems for Kids
Evaluation of information retrieval systems (IRS) is a prominent topic among information retrieval researchers--mainly directed at a general population.
A Framework for Hierarchical Multilingual Machine Translation
Multilingual machine translation has recently been in vogue given its potential for improving machine translation performance for low-resource languages via transfer learning.
Hierarchical Mapping for Crosslingual Word Embedding Alignment
The alignment of word embedding spaces in different languages into a common crosslingual space has recently been in vogue.
Multiattentive Recurrent Neural Network Architecture for Multilingual Readability Assessment
We present a multiattentive recurrent neural network architecture for automatic multilingual readability assessment.
