Yasser K.; Kutlu M.; Elsayed T. ( CEUR-WS , 2018 , Conference Paper)With the enormous amount of misinformation spread over the Internet, manual fact-checking is no longer feasible to prevent its negative impact. There is an urgent need for automated systems that can make fact-checking ... -
BroDyn'18: Workshop on analysis of broad dynamic topics over social media
Elsayed T.; Magdy W.; Kutlu M.; Hasanain M.; Suwaileh R. ( CEUR-WS , 2018 , Conference Paper)Social media streams are flooded with posts related to topics that are broad (i.e., cover several sub-topics) and dynamic (i.e., develop over time) which attract long-standing user interests. Posts about topics like "Brexit" ... -
EveTAR: building a large-scale multi-task test collection over Arabic tweets
Hasanain, M.; Suwaileh, R.; Elsayed, T.; Kutlu, M.; Almerekhi, H. ( Springer Netherlands , 2018 , Article)This article introduces a new language-independent approach for creating a large-scale high-quality test collection of tweets that supports multiple information retrieval (IR) tasks without running a shared-task campaign. ... -
Intelligent topic selection for low-cost information retrieval evaluation: A New perspective on deep vs. shallow judging
Kutlu M.; Elsayed T.; Lease M. ( Elsevier Ltd , 2018 , Article)While test collections provide the cornerstone for Cranfield-based evaluation of information retrieval (IR) systems, it has become practically infeasible to rely on traditional pooling techniques to construct test collections ... -

Re-ranking web search results for better fact-checking: A preliminary study
Yasser K.; Kutlu M.; Elsayed T. ( Association for Computing Machinery , 2018 , Conference Paper)Even though Web search engines play an important role in finding documents relevant to user queries, there is little to no attention given to how they perform in terms of usefulness for fact-checking claims. In this paper, ... -
When rank order isn't enough: New statistical-significance-aware correlation measures
Kutlu M.; Elsayed T.; Hasanain M.; Lease M. ( Association for Computing Machinery , 2018 , Conference Paper)Because it is expensive to construct test collections for Cranfield-based evaluation of information retrieval systems, a variety of lower-cost methods have been proposed. The reliability of these methods is often validated ...
