and Techniques by Koller and Friedman [KF09]; and Machine Learning: An Algorithmic
Perspective by Marsland [Mar09]. For an edited collection of seminal articles on machine
learning, see Machine Learning, An Artificial Intelligence Approach, Volumes 1 through 4,
edited by Michalski et al. [MCM83, MCM86, KM90, MT94], and Readings in Machine
Learning by Shavlik and Dietterich [SD90].
Machine learning and pattern recognition research is published in the proceed-
ings of several major machine learning, artificial intelligence, and pattern recognition
conferences, including the International Conference on Machine Learning (ML), the
ACM Conference on Computational Learning Theory (COLT), the IEEE Conference
on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), the International Conference
on Pattern Recognition (ICPR), the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intel-
ligence (IJCAI), and the American Association of Artificial Intelligence Conference
(AAAI). Other sources of publication include major machine learning, artificial intel-
ligence, pattern recognition, and knowledge system journals, some of which have been
mentioned before. Others include Machine Learning (ML), Pattern Recognition (PR),
Artificial Intelligence Journal (AI), IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine
Intelligence (PAMI), and Cognitive Science.
Textbooks and reference books on information retrieval include Introduction to
Information Retrieval by Manning, Raghavan, and Schutz [MRS08]; Information
Retrieval: Implementing and Evaluating Search Engines by B¨ uttcher, Clarke, and Cormack
[BCC10]; Search Engines: Information Retrieval in Practice by Croft, Metzler, and
Strohman [CMS09]; Modern Information Retrieval: The Concepts and Technology Behind
Search by Baeza-Yates and Ribeiro-Neto [BYRN11]; and Information Retrieval: Algo-
rithms and Heuristics by Grossman and Frieder [GR04].
Information retrieval research is published in the proceedings of several informa-
tion retrieval and Web search and mining conferences, including the International
ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval
(SIGIR), the International World Wide Web Conference (WWW), the ACM Interna-
tional Conference on Web Search and Data Mining (WSDM), the ACM Conference on
Information and Knowledge Management (CIKM), the European Conference on Infor-
mation Retrieval (ECIR), the Text Retrieval Conference (TREC), and the ACM/IEEE
Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL). Other sources of publication include
major information retrieval, information systems, and Web journals, such as Journal
of Information Retrieval, ACM Transactions on Information Systems (TOIS), Informa-
tion Processing and Management, Knowledge and Information Systems (KAIS), and IEEE
Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering (TKDE).
