🎄 PyTerrier Advent 24/25: Removing low-quality docs can boost search quality and cut indexing costs. Our SIGIR’24 paper QT5 trains a T5 model to filter passages at indexing time—easy to integrate, and works with dense, PISA, or SPLADE indexers too.

🎄 PyTerrier Advent 23/25: Results too homogeneous? Try a diversification reranker. Shown: implicit MMR on BM25 or dense retrieval—but explicit methods like xQuAD (@rodrygo_santos) are easy too.

@iadh General Chair of #ICDCS2025 with some lovely SICSA volunteers :)
Lots of positive vibes on the last day and great conversations still happening 🙌 A packed afternoon of great sessions still to come before the closing ceremony🌟
Delighted to see the revamped Posters & Demos session at #ICDCS2025 — an innovation @chrisatglasgow, @graham_mcdonald, and I proposed in conjunction with the track chairs this year — lead to such a strong attendance and engagement. Great to see the plans come to life!
Lively posters and demos session at #ICDCS2025 — engaging conversations and exciting new ideas across the distributed systems spectrum. All fueled by a touch of Scottish hospitality to keep the energy high!
Journal article “Unifying Isolated Processes for Enhanced Multi-modal Recommendations Using a Graph Transformer” has been accepted at ACM Transactions on Recommender Systems (ToRS); Joint work with @ZixuanYI_  & part of a special issue on best papers from ACM #RecSys 2024
Delighted to see my former PhD student at @ir_glasgow and @GlasgowCS Jingmin Huang, now a lecturer at the University of Southampton; Jingmin served as Demo Co-Chair at #ICDCS2025. Great to catch up at the conference!
Want your LLMs to be safe and responsibly aligned? Time to vaccinate them! 🧬
Fascinating #ICDCS2025 keynote by Ling Liu (Georgia Tech) on reducing fine-tuning costs while boosting safety in LLM deployment.
