Erik Selberg has coverage of Hector Garcia Molina's keynote. It's a little vague (clearly a general outline), but Hector's priorities are interesting:
Hector's research priorities:
- Beyond Search
- Information Integration
- Monetizing
- Social Networking
- Coping with Scale
Here are few of my picks to read:
- Crawl Ordering by Search Impact (Pandy and Olston from Yahoo! Research)
- Beyond Basic Faceted Search (IBM Haifa)
- Fast Learning of Document Ranking Functions with the Committee Perceptron (CMU LTI)
- SoftRank: Optimizing Non-Smooth Rank Metrics (MSR Cambridge)
- An Experimental Comparison of Click Position-Bias Models (MSR Cambridge)
- Preferential Behavior in Online Groups(Yahoo! Research)
- Finding High-Quality Content in Social Media (Eugene Agichtein and Yahoo! Research)
- Can Social Bookmarking Improve Web Search? (Molina and others from Stanford)
Hopefully, I will have time to write up more detailed reviews of the papers later.
