ACM SIGIR (Association for Computing Machinery Special Interest Group on Information Retrieval)

ACM SIGIR (Special Interest Group on Information Retrieval) is a community within the Association for Computing Machinery focused on the science of finding and retrieving information. It brings together researchers, practitioners, and developers interested in how computers can efficiently locate relevant data from large collections, such as search engines, digital libraries, and data mining systems. SIGIR organizes conferences, publishes research, and fosters collaboration to advance understanding and innovation in information retrieval, ultimately improving how people access and use information across various digital platforms.
