New DFG-funded project on "Cross-language Learning-to-Rank for Patent Retrieval"

Members of ICL have embarked on a new DFG-funded project on "Cross-language Learning-to-Rank for Patent Retrieval". The project, led by Stefan Riezler, aims at directly integrating patent search and translation to improve, e.g., multilingual patent prior art search.
The project team includes Dr. Artem Sokolov (formerly at LIMSI-CNRS, Orsay) as postdoctoral researcher and M.A. Patrick Simianer (Heidelberg) as doctoral researcher.
