Just finished presenting our paper with Zijun Long on how to enhance interactive image retrieval at inference time with diffusion models at #SIGIR2025


Now at the Demo session Craig Macdonald and Andrew Parry @ SIGIR are presenting the beautiful RAG capabilities of PyTerrier #SIGIR2025


Looking for more cool demos at #SIGIR2025? You have already seen the beautiful PyTerrier RAG? Don’t miss Sean MacAvaney showcasing artefact sharing for information retrieval — an exciting step toward more reproducible IR research!



Huge congratulations to Sean MacAvaney on receiving the prestigious ACM SIGIR Early Career Researcher Award in the research category! This well-deserved recognition highlights the excellence & impact of his work in the IR community 👏🎉#sigir2025 Cc UofG Computing Science University of Glasgow ACM SIGIR

Starting the day at #SIGIR2025 FinIR Workshop with a lively keynote presentation by Iadh Ounis: Beyond Profit: Evaluating Financial Recommenders with Real-World Transactions. Glasgow IR Group UoG IDA Section, Glasgow CS UofG Computing Science


After Iadh Ounis’s keynote at the #sigir2025 FinIR workshop and Fangzheng Tian’s talk at the RAG workshop, our SIGIR journey winds down — time to enjoy the rest of the programme! But let’s not forget two more awards: Best SPC and PC Member Awards for our own Iadh Ounis and Debasis Ganguly resp.






A strong turnout and an attentive audience for Zaiqiao Meng’s presentation at the #ICDCS2025 tutorial on Integrating Knowledge Graphs into Large Language Models. Great to see such strong interest in this important topic! Pictures by Iadh Ounis






Great to see Fani Deligianni and Emma Li from UofG Computing Science leading the inaugural Women in Distributed Data Systems panel at #ICDCS2025 — a fantastic new initiative to promote diversity and broaden participation at the conference. #WiDCS
