SoAPS: Workshop on Social Aspects in Personalization and Search (ECIR 2018)

Workshop at the 40th European Conference on Information Retrieval (ECIR 2018), March 26, 2018.

Modern society is overwhelmed and characterized by exhausting social interactions at all levels. Social media platforms have become powerful tools to collect user preferences, but are just one of the possibilities that should be exploited. Being able to exploit social aspects to mine user behavior and extract additional information leads to improvements in the accuracy of personalization and search technologies, and to better targeted services.

This workshop aimed to collect novel ideas in this field and to provide a common ground for researchers working in this area.
