Report on the SIGIR 2013 Workshop on Modeling User Behavior for Information Retrieval Evaluation (MUBE 2013).

The SIGIR 2013 Workshop on Modeling User Behavior of Information Retrieval Evaluation brought together researchers interested in improving Cranfield-style evaluation of information retrieval through the modeling of user behavior. The workshop included two invited talks, ten short paper presentations, and breakout groups. Workshop participants brainstormed research questions of interest and formed breakout groups to explore these questions in greater depth. In addition to summarizing the invited talks and presentations, this report details the results of the breakout groups, which provide a set of research directions for the improvement of information retrieval evaluation.
