- Information retrieval - Information retrieval (IR) is the science of searching for information in documents, searching for documents themselves, searching for metadata which describe documents, or searching within databases, whether relational stand-alone databases or hypertextually-networked databases such as the World Wide Web. There is a common confusion, however, between data ...
- Geographic Information Retrieval - Geographic Information Retrieval (GIR) or Geographical Information Retrieval is the augmentation of Information Retrieval with geographic metadata.
- SMART Information Retrieval System - The SMART (Salton’s Magic Automatic Retriever of Text) Information Retrieval System is an information retrieval system developed at Cornell University in the 1960s. Many important concepts in information retrieval were developed as part of research on the SMART system, including the vector space model and relevance feedback.
- Cross-language information retrieval - Cross-language information retrieval (CLIR) is a subfield of information retrieval dealing with retrieving information written in a language different from the language of the user's query. For example, a user may pose their query in English but retrieve relevant documents written in French.
- Adversarial information retrieval - Adversarial information retrieval (adversarial IR) is a topic in information retrieval that addresses tasks such as gathering, indexing, filtering, retrieving and ranking information from collections wherein a subset has been manipulated maliciously. Adversarial IR includes the study of methods to detect, isolate, and defeat such manipulation.
