The aim of the provided support is to increase student participation in the 41st ACM Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval (SIGIR 2018), held in Ann Arbor Michigan, U.S.A., July 8-12, 2018. A strong representation of U.S. researchers, particularly students, at the SIGIR conference is essential to maintaining U.S. competitiveness in this important area today and into the future. We recognize the importance of recruiting and engaging students in information retrieval research in early stages of their graduate studies as well as broadening participation of underrepresented students. Support will be provided to 25 US-based graduate students, selected by the SIGIR 2018 Student Sponsorship Committee, on the basis of merit and need. The selection of students receiving the support will also put emphasis on the diversity of the students. Students will be able to present and discuss their research with each other and with senior researchers and help to form future research collaborations.SIGIR is the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on Information Retrieval. Since 1963, the SIGIR conference has promoted research, development and education in the area of search and other information access technologies. It is the major international forum for the presentation of new research and the demonstration of new systems and techniques in the broad field of information retrieval. It covers all aspects of information retrieval research, including theories and foundations, algorithms and applications, and evaluation and analysis. The SIGIR conference program includes oral and poster presentations of refereed papers as well as panel discussions and invited talks by the leading experts from industry and academia. Information on SIGIR 2018 can be accessed at http://sigir.org/sigir2018/. Proceedings will be made available through the ACM Digital Library.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

提供支持的目的是提高学生对第 41 届 ACM 信息检索研究与发展会议 (SIGIR 2018) 的参与度，该会议于 2018 年 7 月 8 日至 12 日在美国密歇根州安娜堡举行。特别是学生，SIGIR 会议对于保持美国在当今和未来这一重要领域的竞争力至关重要。我们认识到在研究生学习的早期阶段招募和吸引学生参与信息检索研究以及扩大代表性不足的学生的参与的重要性。将向 SIGIR 2018 学生资助委员会根据成绩和需求选出的 25 名美国研究生提供支持。接受支持的学生的选择也将强调学生的多样性。学生将能够相互展示并与高级研究人员讨论他们的研究，并帮助形成未来的研究合作。SIGIR 是计算机器协会信息检索特别兴趣小组。自 1963 年以来，SIGIR 会议一直致力于推动搜索和其他信息访问技术领域的研究、开发和教育。它是在信息检索广泛领域展示新研究和展示新系统和技术的主要国际论坛。它涵盖了信息检索研究的各个方面，包括理论与基础、算法与应用、评估与分析。 SIGIR 会议议程包括审稿论文的口头和海报展示以及来自工业界和学术界的领先专家的小组讨论和邀请演讲。有关 SIGIR 2018 的信息可访问 http://sigir.org/sigir2018/。会议记录将通过 ACM 数字图书馆提供。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
