RI: SIGART/AAAI Doctoral Consortium 2007

该奖项支持美国大学的博士生参加2007年7月22日至23日在不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华举行的第十一届SIGART/AAAI博士联盟，同时还将于2007年7月22-26日举行第22届全国人工智能会议(AAAI-07)。博士联盟的目标是：(1)提供对与会者当前研究的反馈和对未来研究方向的指导；(2)发展一个支持性的学者社区和合作研究的精神；(3)支持新一代研究人员；以及(4)通过与会议上其他研究人员的互动为会议做出贡献。博士联盟努力招收和包括来自代表性不足的群体(例如，女性和代表性不足的少数民族)以及规模较小的学校或人工智能课程较少的学校的学生。每个学生将做25分钟的陈述，然后是20分钟的讨论，由一名教师参与者指导；还将与教师导师进行一对一的会议。还将有机会在学术和其他职业道路上讨论职业问题。关于该财团的一篇报道将发表在AI杂志上。

ABSTRACTThis award supports participation of doctoral students from U.S. universities in the eleventh SIGART/AAAI Doctoral Consortium to be held July 22 and 23, 2007 in Vancouver, B.C. in conjunction with the 22th National Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-07), July 22-26, 2007. The Doctoral Consortium aims to: (1) provide a setting for feedback on participants' current research and guidance on future research directions; (2) develop a supportive community of scholars and a spirit of collaborative research; (3) support a new generation of researchers; and (4) contribute to the conference through interaction with other researchers at the conference. The Doctoral Consortium strives to recruit and include students from underrepresented groups (e.g., women and underrepresented minorities) and smaller schools or schools with less established programs in artificial intelligence. Each student will give a 25-minute presentation to be followed by 20 minutes of discussion guided by a faculty participant; there were also be a one-on-one meeting with the faculty mentor. There will also be opportunities to discuss career issues in both academic and other career pathways. A report on the Consortium will be published in the AI Magazine.
