    There is an increasing level of research interest within the
    connectionist and machine learning communities on a number of aspects
    of information retrieval * evidenced by the number of papers appearing
    in recent NIPS and ICML conferences as well as recently organised
    post-conference workshops at NIPS on document mining and
    retrieval. Therefore the following cfp will be of interest to the
    connectionist and ml mailing lists.

    The 24th BCS-IRSG European Colloquium on Information Retrieval (IR)
    Research - which was the precursor of the ACM SIGIR conference - is
    being held in the city of Glasgow, Scotland and submissions reporting
    recent research work in this area are welcomed.

    24th BCS-IRSG European Colloquium on IR Research
    March 25-27, 2002, Glasgow, Scotland, UK
    http://www.cs.strath.ac.uk/ECIR02/

    The colloquium on information retrieval research provides an
    opportunity for both new and established researchers to present papers
    describing work in progress or final results. These Colloquia were
    established by the BCS IRSG (British Computer Society Information
    Retrieval Specialist Group), and named the Annual Colloquium on
    Information Retrieval Research. Recently, the location of the
    colloquium has alternated between the United Kingdom and continental
    Europe. To reflect the growing European orientation of the event, the
    Colloquium was renamed "European Annual Colloquium on Information
    Retrieval Research" from 2001. The previous five colloquia have been
    held in Darmstadt (2001), Cambridge (2000), Glasgow (1999), Grenoble
    (1998), and Aberdeen (1997).
