The scope of the conference encompassed the theory and practice of all aspects of information retrieval in text, audio, image, video, and multimedia data. AIRS 2010 continued the conference series that grew from the Information Retrievalwith Asian Languages(IRAL) workshopseries,started in1996.It has become amature venuefor informationretrievalwork,finding supportfromthe ACMSpecialInterestGrouponInformationRetrieval(SIGIR); the Association for Computational Linguistics and Chinese Language Processing (ACLCLP); ROCLING; and the Information Processing Society of Japan, Special Interest GrouponInformationFundamentalsandAccessTechnologies(IPSJSIG-IFAT). This year saw a sharp rise in the number of submissions over the previous year. A total of 120 papers were submitted, representing work by academics and practitioners not only from Asia, but also from Australia, Europe, North America, etc. The high quality of the work made it difficult for the dedicated programcommitteetodecidewhichpaperstofeatureattheconference.Through adouble-blindreviewingprocess,26submissions(21%)wereacceptedasfulloral papers and 31 (25%) were accepted as short posters.

We thank them for their support of this conference, and for their long-term support of this Asian-centric venue for IR researchand development. For a conference to run smoothly,much behind-the-scenes workis necessary, most of which is largely unseen by the authors and delegates.
