NDTV's Research Paper Accepted at SIGIR 2026 Industry Track, A first for Indian Media
NDTV has achieved a significant milestone in applied artificial intelligence, with its research paper accepted at ACM SIGIR 2026 - widely regarded as the world’s leading conference in search and information retrieval. Rohan Tyagi, Chief Product Officer, NDTV Digital The paper, ‘All the News That Fits in Bits: Learned Rotation-Aware Binary Projections for Efficient News Retrieval at NDTV’, focuses on a challenge that sits at the core of modern news platforms - how to find and surface the right information instantly from a rapidly expanding universe of content. As newsrooms scale and archives grow, delivering relevant stories in real time - with speed, accuracy, and efficiency - becomes increasingly complex. NDTV’s work offers a more effective way to do this, making search significantly faster and more cost-efficient without compromising quality. The system has been tested under real-world newsroom conditions, where editorial teams found the results to be as reliable and relevant as those of existing approaches. The acceptance is particularly notable given the selectivity of SIGIR’s Industry Track, where only a small number of papers are chosen globally from submissions by leading technology companies and research institutions. NDTV becomes the first Indian media company to be selected in this category. Ritwick Ghosh, lead author of the paper and Engineer, Machine Learning at NDTV , said, ‘The challenge was simple to describe but difficult to solve - how do you search through a massive and constantly growing news library in milliseconds, without losing relevance? This work is about making that possible in a way that is fast, efficient, and dependable in real newsroom conditions.’ Rohan Tyagi, Chief Product Officer, NDTV Digital , added, 'As our content and audiences scale, building intelligent systems like these becomes essential. This is about ensuring that relevance is delivered instantly, while keeping the experience seamless and efficient.’ This recognition places NDTV among a small group of global organisations contributing to advances in AI-driven search and discovery, and strengthens its position as a newsroom building technology grounded in real-world use. Note to editor: About NDTV NDTV is India’s most trusted window to the world — defined by its credibility, commitment to accuracy, and depth of reporting.

The challenge served as a dynamic platform for young engineers to demonstrate technical capabilities, creativity, and problem-solving skills while addressing critical energy and mobility concerns. “ At a time when geopolitical tensions in the Gulf region continue to impact global energy supply chains and fuel stability, the need for sustainable and self-reliant mobility solutions has become more urgent than ever. Initiatives like the SIEP E-Bike Challenge empower young innovators to develop practical, scalable alternatives that can reduce dependency on conventional fuels and contribute to a more resilient and sustainable future.” ’ s larger mission of aligning academic learning with industry requirements and national priorities in clean mobility and skill development. The challenge also brought together participants from leading institutions across the country, including DIT University, Dr. D.Y. Patil Institute of Technology, Thiagarajar College of Engineering, Amrutvahini College of Engineering, Raj Kumar Goel Institute of Technology, JSS Academy of Technical Education, VNRVJIET, Shree Rayeshwar Institute, Pimpri Chinchwad College, Muthoot Institute, RVR and JC College of Engineering, St. Joseph's College, Sri Ramakrishna Institute, Zeal College, A. P. Shah Institute, Mepco Schlenk Engineering College, KL University, Jabalpur Engineering College, and RV College of Engineering. Through the development of functional and energy-efficient E-Bike prototypes, students gained industry-ready exposure while contributing ideas that address fuel dependency and environmental sustainability. ’ s transition toward a cleaner and more efficient future. www.galgotiasuniversity.edu.in .
