RI: SIGART/AAAI Doctoral Consortium 2007

本奖项支持美国大学的博士生参加第十一届SIGART/AAAI博士联盟，该联盟将于2007年7月22日至23日在不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华举行，与此同时，第22届全国人工智能会议（AAAI-07）将于2007年7月22日至26日举行。博士联盟旨在：(1)为参与者提供一个反馈当前研究和指导未来研究方向的场所；(2)建立一个支持性的学者社区和合作研究精神；(3)支持新一代科研人员；(4)通过与会议上其他研究人员的互动为会议做出贡献。博士联盟努力招募并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）、规模较小的学校或人工智能项目较少的学校的学生。每位学生将做一个25分钟的演讲，然后在教师的指导下进行20分钟的讨论；我们还将与教师导师进行一对一的会面。也将有机会讨论学术和其他职业道路上的职业问题。关于该联盟的报告将发表在《人工智能杂志》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.
