UMAP is the premier international conference for researchers and
practitioners working on systems that adapt to their individual
users, or to groups of users, and collect and represent information
about users for this purpose. UMAP is the successor to the biennial
User Modeling and Adaptive Hypermedia conferences that were merged
in 2009. It is organized under the auspices of User Modeling Inc.
The 20th edition, UMAP 2012, will be held at the Holiday Inn hotel
for the main conference and at Université du Québec à Montréal
campus for the workshops (see Venue for
details).
The conference spans a wide scope of topics related to user modeling
and personalization, including tailoring of search results,
recommending products, Web usage mining and collaborative filtering.
