Book excerpt: It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 26th ACM International Conference on User modeling, Adaptation and personalization - UMAP 2018. UMAP is the premier international conference for researchers and practitioners working on systems that adapt to individual users or to groups of users. UMAP is the successor of the biennial User Modeling (UM) and Adaptive Hypermedia and Adaptive Web-based Systems (AH) conferences that were merged in 2009. It has traditionally been organized under the auspices of User Modeling Inc. Since 2016, UMAP is an ACM conference, sponsored by ACM SIGCHI and SIGWEB. UMAP 2018 is a very special conference, as this is the very first time UMAP will be located in Asia! We hope to meet many like-minded researchers from Singapore and other Asian countries. The conference spans a wide scope of topics related to user modeling, adaptation, and personalization. UMAP 2018 is focused on bringing together cutting-edge research from user interaction and modeling, adaptive technologies, and delivery platforms. It includes high-quality peer-reviewed papers featuring substantive new research in one of five research tracks, each chaired by leaders in the field: Adaptive Hypermedia and the Semantic Web (track chairs Peter Brusilovsky and Geert-Jan Houben) Intelligent User interfaces (track chairs Shlomo Berkovsky and Markus Schedl) Personalized Recommender Systems (track chairs Dietmar Jannach and Markus Zanker) Personalized Social Web (track chairs Cecile Paris and Julita Vassileva) Technology-Enhanced Adaptive Learning (track chairs Olga Santos and Carla Limongelli) The call for papers attracted 137 submissions from 33 different countries on all continents except Antarctica: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, Cyprus, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nigeria, Norway, Pakistan, Philippines, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, and the United States The international program committee consisted of 131 reviewers. Each submission received at least 3 reviews. After the initial reviews were submitted, the designated track chairs (TCs) facilitated discussion amongst reviewers in order to resolve differences and correct misunderstandings. The TCs then provided a recommendation to the Program Chairs. The final decisions were based on these recommendations, meta-reviews, and reviewer scores. Moreover, 10 papers were accepted as extended abstracts, and 13 were included in Late Breaking Results track (LBR). We thank Hui Fang and Pasquale Lops, LBR and Demo Chairs, for their efforts on selecting addition papers submitted to this track. As a result, there are 3 Demos, 3 Theory, Opinion and Reflection papers, and 20 Late Breaking Results papers presented in the iv UMAP poster sessions, which collectively showcase the wide spectrum of novel ideas and latest results in user modeling, adaptation and personalization. We also encourage attendees to attend the keynote presentations; these valuable and insightful talks guide us to a better understanding of the future.

Download or read book Personalized Human Computer Interaction written by Mirjam Augstein and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-09-23 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Personalized and adaptive systems employ user models to adapt content, services, interaction or navigation to individual users’ needs. User models can be inferred from implicitly observed information, such as the user’s interaction history or current location, or from explicitly entered information, such as user profile data or ratings. Applications of personalization include item recommendation, location-based services, learning assistance and the tailored selection of interaction modalities. With the transition from desktop computers to mobile devices and ubiquitous environments, the need for adapting to changing contexts is even more important. However, this also poses new challenges concerning privacy issues, user control, transparency, and explainability. In addition, user experience and other human factors are becoming increasingly important. This book describes foundations of user modeling, discusses user interaction as a basis for adaptivity, and showcases several personalization approaches in a variety of domains, including music recommendation, tourism, and accessible user interfaces.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ACM UMAP - User Modeling, Adaptation and Personalization ? is the premier international conference for researchers and practitioners working on systems that adapt to individual users or to groups of users, and that collect, represent, and model user information. ACM UMAP is sponsored by ACM SIGCHI and SIGWEB, and organized with User Modeling Inc. UMAP is the successor of the biennial User Modeling (UM) and Adaptive Hypermedia and Adaptive Web-based Systems (AH) conferences that were merged in 2009. For the first time in the history of the conference, ACM UMAP 2022 ran in hybrid mode, with the opportunity for speakers and attendees to participate onsite or online, hosted at the University Pompeu Fabra, Spain. The conference runs over 4 days, with the classic tracks that characterize it, spanning from papers, workshops, tutorials, late breaking results, and a Doctoral Consortium. With the help of our Local chairs (Cristian Consonni and Mihnea Tufis,) and Streaming & Broadcasting chairs (Walter Anelli, Lesly Miculicich, Lorena Recalde, and Mete Sertkan) this new format was developed in a manageable way to offer a rich attendance to both online and onsite participants. In addition, this year we are celebrating the 30th anniversary of UMAP. Since no celebration can be done alone, ACM UMAP 2022 is co-located with ACM WebSci 2022 and ACM Hypertext 2022, both happening in Barcelona a few days before the conference. To celebrate this anniversary, new topics enriched our main track: "virtual assistants and human-robot interaction" and "research methods and reproducibility." New this year was the fact that the personalized recommender systems track was cross-listed with the ACM Hypertext conference, and the track chairs did an excellent job of coordinating the review processes across the two conferences. Moreover, to mark the 30th anniversary of the UMAP conference, we organized the Theory, Opinion and Reflection track to reflect on qualitative and quantitative analyses while welcoming blue-sky and innovative ideas, with two accepted papers being presented in the conference. ACM UMAP covers a wide variety of research areas where personalization and adaptation may be applied. This includes a number of domains in which researchers are engendering significant innovations based on advances in the areas of user modeling and adaptation, recommender systems, adaptive educational systems, intelligent user interfaces, e-commerce, advertising, digital humanities, social networks, personalized health, entertainment, and many more.

Download or read book Personalization and Collaboration in Adaptive E Learning written by Tadlaoui, Mouenis Anouar and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-12-13 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of e-learning, adaptive systems are more specialized and focus on the adaptation of learning content and presentation of this content. An adaptive system focuses on how knowledge is learned and pays attention to the activities, cognitive structures, and context of the learning material. The adaptive term refers to the automatic adaptation of the system to the learner. The needs of the learner are borne by the system itself. The learner did not ask to change the parameters of the system to his own needs; it is rather the needs of the learner that will be supposed by the system. The system adapts according to this necessity. Personalization and Collaboration in Adaptive E-Learning is an essential reference book that aims to describe the specific steps in designing a scenario for a collaborative learning activity in the particular context of personalization in adaptive systems and the key decisions that need to be made by the teacher-learner. By applying theoretical and practical aspects of personalization in adaptive systems and applications within education, this collection features coverage on a broad range of topics that include adaptive teaching, personalized learning, and instructional design. This book is ideally designed for instructional designers, curriculum developers, educational software developers, IT specialists, educational administrators, professionals, professors, researchers, and students seeking current research on comparative studies and the pedagogical issues of personalized and collaborative learning.

Download or read book User Modeling Servers written by Josef Fink and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Software systems that adapt their services to characteristics of individual users have already proven to be more effective and/or usable than non-adaptive systems. User-adaptive systems rely on user modeling systems for exhibiting personalized behavior. Quite a few user modeling systems have been developed during the past fifteen years. The decisions as to what useful services/functionalities of these systems are were mostly based on intuition and/or experience gained from studying the literature of a few user-adaptive applications. Results from neighboring disciplines and commercial developments have been largely ignored. Empirical evaluations of the practical applicability of user modeling systems were hardly ever carried out. This book is different: the author takes an interdisciplinary and application-oriented approach, defines meaningful requirements on user modeling servers, gives an overview of existing systems, pinpoints their deficiencies, develops a very novel architecture for user modeling servers, implements it, and tests its utility both within an application project and in empirically founded performance experiments. His excellent synthesis of scientific and industrial concerns (which rests on research in data bases, distributed systems, human-computer interaction, user modeling, statistics, and e-commerce) and his very convincing solutions make this book a worthwhile reading both for researchers and for industrial practitioners.

Book excerpt: Welcome to the 28th and the first virtual ACM International Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation, and Personalization (UMAP 2020), virtually in Genoa, Italy, July 12-18, 2020. This year, UMAP is being held virtually due to Covid-19 pandemic. In order to enable virtual participation from all time zones, every session is repeated twice, with live interaction. UMAP is the premier international conference for researchers and practitioners working on systems that adapt to individual users or to groups of users. UMAP is the successor of the biennial User Modeling (UM) and Adaptive Hypermedia and Adaptive Web-based Systems (AH) conferences that were merged in 2009. It has traditionally been organized under the auspices of User Modeling Inc. and since 2016 UMAP is an ACM conference, sponsored by ACM SIG CHI and SIG WEB. The conference spans a wide scope of topics related to user modeling, adaptation, and personalization. As previous conferences, UMAP 2020 is focused on bringing together cutting-edge research from user interaction and modeling, adaptive technologies, and delivery platforms. It includes high-quality peer-reviewed papers featuring substantive new research in one of five main research areas:User Modeling for Recommender SystemsAdaptive & Personalized Educational SystemsIntelligent User InterfacesUser modeling in health and safetyResponsible personalization (UMAP 2020 theme)Personality, cognitive aspects and emotions in user modeling This year, we received 139 long paper and 62 short paper submissions. In keeping with UMAPs rigorous standards, each paper was carefully reviewed by members of the Program Committee (PC). The international Program Committee (PC) consisted of 28 senior members who were assisted by 118 committee members. These were leading researchers as well as highly promising young researchers. Papers were assigned to at least 3 members of the PC and to 1 senior member based on their expertise, interests, and other factors. Each paper received at least 3 reviews. After the initial reviews were submitted, the designated senior PC member facilitated discussion amongst reviewers in order to resolve differences and correct misunderstandings. The senior PC member then provided a summative meta-review and a recommendation to the Program Chairs. The final decisions were based on these recommendations, the meta-reviews, and reviewer scores. We accepted 31 (22%) of the long papers and 15 (24%) of the short paper submissions for oral presentation and inclusion in the proceedings. The program also features posters, demos, and late breaking results, which collectively showcase the wide spectrum of novel ideas and latest results in user modeling, adaptation and personalization, 29 submissions received, 19 were accepted (66%).
