CIKM 2010 topics are in the broad areas of Databases, Information Retrieval, and Knowledge Management. CIKM 2010 also includes an Industry track. Each area is organized into tracks:
Information Retrieval: - Citation Analysis, Social Networks for IR
- Domain-specific IR (e.g., Legal IR, Genome, Mobile IR, IR for chemical structures)
- Filtering (e.g., Routing, Collaborative filtering, Topic tracking, Recommender systems)
- Foundation of Information Retrieval (e.g., theory, ranking)
- IR Architectures, Scalability and Efficiency
- IR Evaluation
- Language Specific IR (Multi-lingual, Cross-lingual, NLP, Question and Answer)
- Machine Learning for IR
- Multimedia IR (Audio, Speech, Video, Image)
- Semi-Structured Information Retrieval
- Distributed IR, Peer to Peer Search
- User Modeling for IR, Search Personalization
- Web Search, Advertising, Adversarial
- Other topics related to IR (Privacy, Spam, Feature Engineering, et. al.)
