The International Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation, and Personalization (UMAP) is the oldest international conference for researchers and practitioners working on various kinds of user-adaptive computer systems such as Adaptive hypermedia systems, Recommender systems, Adaptive websites, Adaptive learning, Personalized learning and Intelligent tutoring systems and Personalized search systems.
The UMAP conferences have historically been organized under the auspices of User Modeling Inc.,[1] a professional organization of User Modeling researchers.
UMAP is the successor of the biennial conference series on User Modeling and Adaptive Hypermedia.
[5] The User Modeling series started in 1986 as the First International Workshop on User Modeling (UM)[6] at Maria Laach, Germany and was first officially called a conference at the Fourth International Conference on User Modeling[7] in Hyannis, Massachusetts.
[9][10] The last conference in this original series was AH 2008,[11][12] held in 2008.
