Rating from the CORE Conference Ranking
The ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval is the flagship conference for research on Information Retrieval and Web Search.
The ACM International Conference on Web Search and Data Mining is the prime venue for research between data mining and retrieval, with an emphasis on balancing contributions from industry and academia.
The International World Wide Web Conference is the prime venue for research on Distributed Computing and Information Systems on the Web.
ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries is the prime venue for research on digital libraries and web archiving with applications to retrieval and data mining.
Annual Meeting of the Association of Computational Linguistics is the flagship conference for computational linguistics and NLP.
The ACM International Conference on Information and Knowledge Management spans the research fields of information retrieval, knowledge management, and data bases.
The European Conference on Information Retrieval is the most important conference for information retrieval research in Europe.
The North American Association for Computational Linguistics is the most important conference for natural language processing research in North America.
is the International Symposium on Memory Management. It is specialized conference on theoretical approaches and practical findings around designing the memory infrastructure for runtime systems.
The International Conference on Multimedia Modelling, is a community for natural language processing, information retrieval, and machine learning research that crosses multiple media (e.g., images and text).
The International Symposium on String Processing and Information Retrieval focuses on algorithm development and efficient indexing of text.
The Language Resources and Evaluation Conference is the largest conference in computational linguistics. Because of its focus on dissemination of research resources, it has a low rating but a high reputation.
Unranked Conferences:
Peer-reviewed conferences that are not ranked by CORE, either because they are new venues or the area is out of scope for CORE. Nevertheless, these conference have a reputable standing within their community.
International Conference on the Theory of Information Retrieval focuses on machine learning-centric information retrieval research (acceptance rate around 20%; unranked due to its recent inception).
International Conference on Design of Experimental Search & Information REtrieval Systems is a biennial systems-oriented conference emphasizing the innovative technological aspects of search and retrieval systems.
The Conference on Digital Humanities is the prime venue for research on humanities using born-digital documents.
The Automated Knowledge Base Construction conference is a venue to discuss approaches for entity extraction, relation extraction, and knowledge graph completion.

Evaluation venues and Peer-reviewed Workshops:
The Text Retrieval Conference is an evaluation venue running shared tasks in information retrieval with the support of the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST). Only six tracks are selected anually by board members. The conference proceedings include overviews of tracks, as well as participant’s notebooks. The notebooks describe the submitted system. Hence TREC conference papers are based on the submission of a system—not on peer review, and hence are listed under “other articles”.
The Text Analysis Conference / Knowledge Base Population is an evaluation venue running shared tasks in knowledge base construction with the support of NIST (similar to TREC).
The Representation Learning for NLP workshop is a long-running peer-reviewed workshop series which is hosted at the ACL, an A* conference.
Workshop on Graph-Based Natural Language Processing is hosted at NAACL in 2021, an A conference.
The workshop on Narrative Extraction from Texts is a long-running peer-reviewed workshop series which is hosted at the ECIR, an A conference.
The workshop on Extracting Structured Knowledge from Scientific Publications (ESSP) was held at NAACL in 2019, an A conference.
The International Workshop on Semantic Evaluation is a long-running NLP Evaluation venue that is run as a workshop at NAACL, an A ranked conference.
The workshop on Knowledge Graphs and Semantics for Text Retrieval, Analysis, and Understanding was held at SIGIR in 2017 and 2018, an A* conference.
The workshop on Axiomatic Thinking for Information Retrieval and Related Tasks (ATIR) was held at SIGIR 2017, an A* conference.
