Speaker: Wolfgang Nejdl<br />

===Abstract:===<br />
<br />
More and more information is available on the Web, and the current<br />
search engines do a great job to make it accessible. Yet, optimizing for<br />
a large number of users, they usually provide good answers only to "most<br />
of us", and have yet to provide satisfying mechanisms to search for<br />
audiovisual content.<br />
<br />
In this talk I will present some ongoing work at L3S addressing these<br />
challenges, done in the context of several European Union funded<br />
projects on personal information management and web search. Regarding<br />
personalization, I will talk about personalizing Web Search based on<br />
user content on the desktop, which goes beyond simple user profiles used<br />
in other systems. Regarding search for audiovisual content, I will focus<br />
on exploiting user generated information, and discuss what kinds of tags<br />
are used for different resources like audio and pictures, and how they<br />
can help for search.</div>Fuhrhop
