The First International Workshop on
Recommender Systems for Social Networks
(RESSON 2013)
-----------------------------
In conjunction with ICDM 2013
Dallas, Texas, USA
December 8, 2013
http://sydney.edu.au/engineering/it/~pizzato/workshop/resson2013/
Paper deadline: August 3, 2013
======================================================
[[ Call For Papers ]]
Recommenders are a flagship application for knowledge discovery and data mining
since they have become an important tool for dealing with and overcoming the
information
overload in massive and complex data domains. At the same time, social
networking in the
Web 2.0 involves gigabytes of data that can be mined to make recommendations
while they
allow for developing new insights into people's behavior; such insights can be
used for
improving the quality of the recommendations. However, the exploitation of
social information
in recommender systems brings new challenges to the area of data mining and
knowledge discovery.
The goal of this workshop is to highlight these challenges and to solicit
papers that propose
state-of-the-art solutions to recommender tasks on the basis of social
information. Our workshop
shall provide a framework for directing and inspiring new pathways of data
mining and knowledge
discovery research within recommender systems.
Open questions to be addressed in the solicited papers include:
What is the effect of one's social network in their recommendation?
What are the best strategies for recommending team formation?
How to integrate heterogeneous data and different social network
information?
How to ensure privacy whilst still providing relevant recommendations to
users?
How should the few advances on online recommenders be transferred to the
context of social networks?
How should a recommender respond to drifts and shifts in the behavior of
people, how should advances on
learning under drift be transferred in this context?
