Best Paper Award

February 20, 2009

CSE Professor John Riedl recieved a Best Paper Award at ACM's Intelligent User Interface Conference. His paper, "Tagsplanations: Explaining Recommendations Using Tags" was one of nearly 200 submissions this year. Thirty-five papers were accepted as long papers, and Riedl's paper was the only one to be declared best paper.

The paper introduces tagsplanations, which are explanations based on community tags. Tagsplanations have two key components: tag relevance, the degree to which a tag describes an item, and tag preference, the user's sentiment toward a tag.

"Tagsplanations: Explaining Recommendations Using Tags" was written by Professor Riedl, with CSE graduate students Jesse Vig and Shilad Sen.
