Call For Papers

Personalization has been a prevalent concept in the context of recommender
systems. And the Web Search engines such as Google and Bing have been
incorporating user intents and context to show different ranked lists of
results for different users for the same query. Similarly we find
recommendations that add value to search beyond typical retrieval and
ranking approaches. In the PaRiS 2023 workshop, we want to bring all such
applications and approaches developed to incorporate personalization and
recommendation in search algorithms. This workshop to be held with the
WebConf 2023 <https://www2023.thewebconf.org/> welcomes submissions from
academia and industry researchers and practitioners to submit their work
related to personalization and recommendations in search.

Accepted submissions will be presented at the workshop and will be
published in the companion (workshop) proceedings of the WebConf 2023
<https://www2023.thewebconf.org/>. We welcome research that has been
previously published or is under review elsewhere.

The topics of interest are (but not limited to) listed below:


   -

   Personalized query interpretation and intent disambiguation
   -

   Incorporating user context in real time or in-session adaptation for
   personalization in search
   -

   Personalized evidence generation (such as summary, snippet/TAU, topics,
   among others) and explainability of search results
   -

   Fairness and privacy in personalized search
   -

   Latency, caching and other infrastructural considerations for real-world
   personalized search systems
   -

   Lessons learnt and challenges for developing large scale personalized
   search systems
   -

   Leveraging different modality of data, including text, image, audio for
   personalization of search
   -

   New learning to rank (LTR) approaches for search personalization as well
   as beyond traditional LTR approaches, such as reinforcement learning for
   search personalization
   -

   New applications for personalization and recommendations for search
   (e.g. in healthcare)
   -

   Evaluation metrics for personalization and recommendation in search
   -

   Optimization of delayed user behavioral rewards for personalization and
   recommendations in search context
   -

   Human-computer interaction considerations in designing user interfaces
   and interaction for personalized search
   -

   Datasets or design of simulator for personalized search/recommendation
   -

   Personalizations and recommendations for Conversational Assistants
   -

   Personal search (e.g. email search, desktop search, etc.) is not within
   the scope of the workshop.
