Metrics for Accessing Heterogeneous Data: Is There Any Hope?
Summary: Panel on evaluating systems that integrate heterogeneous sources—text, structured data, multimedia, and geospatial data—via relevance, utility, cost, coverage, and satisfaction metrics. Highlights the difficulty and expense of measuring real user-value and guiding research funding. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
