The Web Conference 2023 Workshop on Machine Learning for Streaming Media
April 30
We believe that there is an urgent need to: (i) build connections and bridge the gap by bringing together researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry working on these problems, (ii) attract ML researchers from other areas to streaming media problems, and (iii) bring up the pain points and battle scars in industry to which academia researchers can pay more attention.

Tutorials

The Web Conf 2023 Tutorial on Data-Informed Interaction Learning
April 30
In this tutorial, we focus on the challenge of subjective needs and multi-shot tasks, and review: (1) How the diverse and heterogeneous set of user interactions can be formalized and represented in the form of a unique model, and (2) How data systems can leverage the interaction model to assist users in their interactions by disambiguating their needs and guiding users through their information seeking journey until landing on their ideal target.
