SIGIR 2017 Tutorial on Health Search (HS2017): A Full-day from Consumers to Clinicians
Pages 1415 - 1418
Abstract
The HS2017 tutorial will cover topics from an area of information retrieval (IR) with significant societal impact - health search. Whether it is searching patient records, helping medical professionals find best-practice evidence, or helping the public locate reliable and readable health information online, health search is a challenging area for IR research with an actively growing community and many open problems. This tutorial will provide attendees with a full stack of knowledge on health search, from understanding users and their problems to practical, hands-on sessions on current tools and techniques, current campaigns and evaluation resources, as well as important open questions and future directions.
