Continuous Evaluation

Insights from LongEval at CLEF 2026

Last week in Madrid, we joined the Information Retrieval community for the annual Conference and Labs of the Evaluation Forum (CLEF). As co-organizers of the LongEval shared task, we were deeply involved in building the Scientific Search dataset for the SciRetrieval task. After nearly a year of preparation, it was fantastic to finally meet with participating teams and discuss their ideas and approaches.
