DESCRIPTION:IEEE Maine Joint Communications/Computer Societies Chapter and 
 UMaine AI invite you to a live virtual event on Thursday\, March 7\, 12-1 
 PM EDT:\n\nMath Information Retrieval: What We Have & What We Need\n\npres
 ented by Behrooz Mansouri\, Assistant Professor of Computer Science\, Univ
 ersity of Southern Maine.\n\nAbstract: This talk introduces math informati
 on retrieval\, discussing the challenges\, existing systems\, and open pro
 blems in this domain. Math information retrieval (MIR) presents unique cha
 llenges due to the structured nature of mathematical language and symbols.
  Despite recent advancements like digital libraries and specialized search
  engines\, the field of MIR still deals with ambiguities and accurately ad
 dressing users’ information needs. This presentation emphasizes ongoing 
 efforts to develop test collections\, search systems\, and conduct user st
 udies for MIR.\n\nCoordinated with Computer Society Region 1 and Region 2 
 Chapters Coordinator.\n\nThe presentation will be followed by Q & A\, mode
 rated by Julia Upton\, IEEE Maine Joint Communications/Computer Societies 
 Chapter Chair.\n\nPlease register (there is no registration fee) here: [ai
