چکیده
Although, most of the recent studies within the IR domain tend to target how users behave while addressing their information needs. However, even though the collection of document sets and user profiling is a top research problem, it holds inherent difficulties for the establishment of a comparative task to evaluate various approaches. Also finding a comprehensive metrics to evaluate different affects of various aspects, that play a significant role in satisfaction of users of personalized IR systems, seems to be another noticeable issue. With the review of related tasks in well-known IR evaluation communities, this paper will discuss the way of gathering users profiles and objects of their interest in last 5 years of IR evaluation campaigns.
