Call for Papers
We are pleased to invite you once again to participate in the premier annual event on research and applications of recommendation technologies, the Third ACM Conference on Recommender Systems. The previous conferences in Minneapolis and Lausanne have been distinguished by a strong level of interaction between practitioners and researchers in the sharing of ideas, problems and solutions, and the 2009 conference will continue in this tradition. The fully-refereed proceedings will be published by the ACM and, like past RecSys proceedings, are expected to be widely read and cited.
We construe recommender systems broadly, including applications ranging from e-commerce to social networking, platforms from web to mobile and beyond, and a wide variety of technologies ranging from collaborative filtering to case-based reasoning. Therefore, topics of interest for RecSys’09 include (but are not limited to):
- Case studies of recommender system implementations
- Conversational recommender systems
- Context-aware and multidimensional recommender systems
- Evaluation of recommender systems
- Group recommenders
- The impact of recommenders in practice
- Innovative recommender applications
- Novel paradigms of recommender systems
- Personalization
- Recommendation algorithms
- Recommendation in social networks
- Recommender system interfaces
- Scalability issues
- Security and privacy
- Semantic web technologies for recommender systems
- Theoretical aspects of recommender systems
- User modeling and recommender systems
- User studies
The conference will present the Best Paper and the Best Poster award, with the Best Poster award being judged on both the (short) paper itself and on the presentation of the work in poster form.
