  CALL FOR PAPERS

  ---

  The workshop on "Soft Computing for Recommender Systems" is part of the Conference ISDA 2009 (http://cig.iet.unipi.it/isda09/).

  Recommender systems have gained tremendous importance in e-commerce applications as a way to suggest items a user might be interested in. In order to accurately predict how much a user will like a given item, intelligent systems taking into account both content-based as well as collaborative information are required.

  In this session, we welcome original work that uses soft computing techniques to this purpose.

  TOPICS

  ---

  The topics for the special session include but are not limited to:

  • Soft computing based recommendation algorithms
  • Case studies and real world applications
  • Recommender system evaluation
  • Trust-based metrics and methods
  • User profile modeling
  • Social network analysis
  • Personalization
