Eight graduate students will be supported to participate actively in the Graduate Symposium at the 2014 Recommender Systems conference of the Association for Computing Machinery in Silicon Valley, RecSys-2014. This doctoral symposium is structured to provide a non-threatening environment for students, in particular for those who may be attending a major international meeting for the first time. To do so, the organizers will depart from the usual conference structure and give students exposure to their research community by presenting their own work and receiving feedback from peers and experienced researcher, by two invited talks about career and life in academia versus industry, and by observing and interacting with other professionals in the field during the conference.Students selected for funding will receive registration, shared hotel accommodation, and need-based airfare support to attend the conference. A carefully-developed evaluation system has been set up to allocate the funds most effectively. Among the priorities are supporting students from different institutions, students who have prepared the most substantial papers to present, students from under-represented groups, and students with financial need. In this area, students require multidisciplinary training. The conference plans a strong program of papers by scientists from both academia and industry researchers around the world, internationally known invited speakers, and a variety of demos and other academia and industry activities.The ACM RecSys conference and the Doctoral Symposium will advance the state of art in recommender systems by proving an open and friendly environment for both junior and senior researchers to explore creative, original, or potentially transformative concepts in the area. Recommender systems exploit past user behaviors and user similarities to generate information items that are personally tailored to an end-user's preferences. They have quickly become among the most useful tools available for accessing information available on the document web, social web sites, ecommerce systems, mobile systems, entertainment systems and more. In the future, they are likely to revolutionize other domains such as education and health care. As RecSys brings together the main international research groups working on recommender systems, along with many of the world?s leading companies, it has become the most important annual conference for the presentation and discussion of recommender system research, and thus a crucial step in a student's career.

将支持八位研究生在2014年硅谷硅谷的2014年推荐系统会议上积极参加研究生研讨会，Recsys-2014。 该博士研讨会的结构是为学生提供无威胁的环境，特别是对于那些可能是第一次参加大型国际会议的人。为此，组织者将通过介绍自己的工作并收到同龄人和经验丰富的研究人员的反馈，通过两次邀请的关于学术界与行业的职业和生活的邀请，观察和与其他专业人员进行互动，在会议期间被选中的其他专业人员通过两次邀请的人互动，请参加会议上的登记，并与他们共享住宿的住宿，并与其他专业人员互动，从而使学生与其他专业人员进行观察和与其他专业人员进行观察和互动，从而使您的登记室供应，并与他们互动。 已经建立了经过精心开发的评估系统，以最有效地分配资金。 优先事项包括为来自不同机构的学生提供支持，这些学生准备了最重要的论文，来自代表性不足的团体的学生以及经济需要的学生。 在这一领域，学生需要多学科培训。该会议计划了来自学术界和世界各地的科学家的强大论文计划，国际知名的邀请演讲者以及各种演示以及其他学术界和行业活动。ACMRecsys会议和博士研讨会将通过为初级和高级研究人员提供一个开放和友好的环境，以探索初级和高级研究人员的创作概念，以探索推荐的系统中的艺术家状况，或者探索创造性的概念。 推荐系统利用过去的用户行为和用户相似性来生成针对最终用户偏好的个人量身定制的信息项。它们很快成为最有用的工具之一，用于访问文档网站，社交网站，电子商务系统，移动系统，娱乐系统等上可用的信息。将来，他们可能会彻底改变其他领域，例如教育和医疗保健。随着Recsys汇集了在推荐系统方面的主要国际研究小组，以及世界许多领先的公司，它已成为推荐系统研究的演示和讨论的最重要的年度会议，从而在学生职业生涯中迈出了关键的一步。
