This grant provides funding to involve graduate students in the relatively new and innovative annual meeting on recommender systems of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), an area of currently great and rapid development in computer and information science. Recommender systems are information systems, often associated with major commercial websites, that advise customers and other users about products such as books or movies, on the basis of their own past choices and the choices of other users who have similar preferences. Following up on previous successful workshops and conferences on recommender systems, the research community has taken the lead in creating an ACM sponsored conference in the field. To be held October 19-20 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, it will feature a peer-reviewed research program (with both a printed proceedings and publication in the ACM Digital Library) and an industry program, to better bring together the experiences and needs of industry practice and academic research. Presentations of full papers, posters, and demonstrations will make up the main body of the conference. The Doctoral Consortium component of the conference will be held on October 18. Between six and eight advanced graduate students will present their research and receive feedback from faculty and fellow students. This doctoral consortium will help expand the participation of young researchers pursuing graduate studies in this field, by providing them an opportunity to gain wider exposure in the community for their innovative work and to obtain feedback and guidance from senior members of the research community. It will further help foster a sense of community among these young researchers, by allowing them to create a social network both among themselves and with senior researchers at a critical stage in their professional development.

该赠款提供了资金，使研究生参与了有关计算机协会推荐系统（ACM）的相对较新的年度会议，这是当前在计算机和信息科学领域伟大而快速发展的领域。 推荐系统是信息系统，通常与主要的商业网站相关联，它根据自己的过去选择以及其他具有类似偏好的用户的选择，向客户和其他用户提供有关书籍或电影等产品的建议。 跟进了以前成功的推荐系统研讨会和会议，研究社区领导着在该领域创建ACM赞助会议。将于10月19日至20日在明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯举行，它将采用同行评审的研究计划（包括ACM数字图书馆的印刷程序和出版物）和行业计划，以更好地汇集行业实践和学术研究的经验和需求。完整论文，海报和示威活动的演讲将构成会议的主体。会议的博士联盟组成部分将于10月18日举行。六至八位高级研究生将介绍他们的研究，并从教师和同学那里获得反馈。 该博士联盟将通过为他们提供机会在社区中获得更广泛的创新工作的机会，并获得研究社区的高级成员的反馈和指导，从而有助于扩大从事该领域的研究生研究的年轻研究人员的参与。这将进一步帮助这些年轻研究人员之间的社区感，使他们能够在自己的专业发展中建立一个社交网络，并与高级研究人员建立一个社交网络。
