So, where were we? 🤔

With the deadlines for #full and #short papers left behind, #UMAP2025 has still amazing calls to offer:

👩‍🏭 Industry (March 2)
👩‍🎓 DC* (March 7)
👩‍🏫 LBR & Demos (April 9)

Some great news we want to share 🤩🤩 We’re happy to announce that the proceedings for the #IRonGraphs workshop, co-located with #ECIR2024 @ecir2024, are officially out. Check them out at: https://t.co/nSRP6tMCB8. Thank you to all the authors for their amazing contributions 🚀🎉

[Daniele Malitesta @dmalitesta]

Recently, #diffusion models in CV have been shown to produce possibly #biased images, eventually leading to #unfairness.

Thus, a natural question arises: "Does this also occur in #recommendation?" Maybe yes 🫢

Take a look at our pre-print 👇👇

[Giacomo @jackmedda]

The #RecSys24 Reproducibility Track will feature "Fair Augmentation for Graph Collaborative Filtering" w\ @ludovicoboratto, @Fra_Fabbri, GianniFenu, @mirkomarras.
Graph augmentation for #fairness was tested on 11 #GNNs, 5 non-GNN #RecommenderSystems.

We are thrilled to announce the two **AMAZING** keynotes at #IRonGraphs WS 🚀

⭐️@Fra_Fabbri (@Spotify, Spain): Graph Foundation Model for Personalization
⭐️@RuihongQiu (@UQSchoolEECS, Australia): Graph Learning Methods in Session-based Recommendations and Legal Case Retrieval

📢Our paper "Robustness in Fairness against Edge-level Perturbations in GNN-based Recommendation" accepted at #ECIR2024 is out https://t.co/3uS0bq4jIZ!💪🏿Stay tuned for more developments on this topic!

w\ @ludovicoboratto, @Fra_Fabbri, G. Fenu, @mirkomarras

[Giacomo @jackmedda]

In our paper, we study the impact of edge-level perturbations on the robustness of GNN-based recommender systems. Grounded in an attack-like perspective, we delineate the unfair consequences of graph perturbations on consumer (CP, CS) and provider fairness (PE, PV) definitions.

[Giacomo @jackmedda]

Happy to share that the collaboration w/ @ludovicoboratto, @Fra_Fabbri, G. Fenu, @mirkomarras resulted in our paper "Robustness in Fairness against Edge-level Perturbations in GNN-based Recommendation" being accepted as a findings paper at @ecir2024.
📃Preprint soon available!!

[Ludovico Boratto @ludovicoboratto]

In "Robustness in Fairness against Edge-level
Perturbations in GNN-based Recommendation", w/ @Fra_Fabbri, G. Fenu, @mirkomarras, @jackmedda, we study the robustness of graph-based recommender systems concerning fairness, when exposed to attacks based on edge-level perturbations.
