Is there a way to modify the bst file to format the references such that the page numbers and the conference titles are removed ?

For example, like this reference:

V. Raykar et al. “Supervised learning from multiple experts: Whom to trust when everyone lies a bit”. In: ICML (2009).

I was able to reduce long author list to et al by modifying the bst file following this post: BibTeX: How can I automatically reduce long author lists to "xxx et al."?.

Make a copy of unsrt.bst with a different name. To ignore page numbers, find the function format.pages and change it to

FUNCTION {format.pages}
{ ""
}

To ignore the booktitle one can remove the line

format.in.ed.booktitle "booktitle" output.check

from the functions incollection and inproceedings. For a tutorial on BibTeX including a discussion of the .bst file see Tame the BeaST.
