====================================================
 
SCOPE:
 
Recommender Systems have proven to be a valuable means for online 
users to cope with the virtual information overload. Correspondingly, 
various techniques for information filtering and recommendation 
generation have been proposed and during the last decade, many of 
them have also been successfully deployed in commercial environments.
 
Still, research in Recommender Systems has not come to an end, in 
particular because the growing number of practical applications of 
such systems continuously raises new research questions. 
Innovative applications of recommender technology for instance may 
require more interactivity between the system and the online user or 
even different forms of recommendation reasoning. In addition, trust 
in the system's proposals and its explanations may play an important 
role for consolidating the acceptance of such systems. Finally, in 
order to further promote the industrial application of recommendation 
technology, the understanding of the effects of recommender systems 
on the user's buying behaviour has to be further improved and evaluated.
 
This special issue of AI Communications shall concentrate on recent 
research in these areas and thus solicits research articles on 
recommender system algorithms and applications, including 
but not limited to:
 
* Advances in recommendation techniques and algorithms
* Recommender system user interfaces and conversational approaches
* Explanations in recommender systems
* Hybrid approaches
* Evaluation of real-world recommender applications
* Group recommender systems
* Security and trust in recommender systems
* Semantic Web technologies and recommender systems
* New application areas for recommender system technology
* Consumer decision making and consumer buying behaviour models.
