RI: SIGART/AAAI Doctoral Consortium 2007

本奖项支持美国大学的博士生参加将于2007年7月22日至23日在不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华举行的第十一届SIGART/AAAI博士联合会，同时参加2007年7月22日至26日举行的第22届全国人工智能会议（AAAI-07）。博士联盟的目标是：（1）为与会者提供一个对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）支持新一代的研究人员;（4）通过与会议上的其他研究人员的互动为会议做出贡献。博士联盟努力招募和包括来自代表性不足的群体的学生（例如，女性和代表性不足的少数民族）和规模较小的学校或人工智能项目较少的学校。每个学生将给出一个25分钟的演讲，然后由教师参与者指导20分钟的讨论;也有一个与教师导师一对一的会议。也将有机会讨论学术和其他职业途径的职业问题。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.
