Proceedings of the 13th International Conference of the CLEF Association (CLEF 2022)

Since 2000, the Conference and Labs of the Evaluation Forum (CLEF) has played a leading role in stimulating research and innovation in the domain of multimodal and multilingual information access. Initially founded as the Cross-Language Evaluation Forum and running in conjunction with the European Conference on Digital Libraries (ECDL/TPDL), CLEF became a standalone event in 2010 combining a peer-reviewed conference with a multi-track evaluation forum. The combination of the scientific pro- gram and the track-based evaluations at the CLEF conference creates a unique platform to explore information access from different perspectives, in any modality and language.
