We invite proposals for half and full-day tutorials to be held at the 15th Web Search and Data Mining (WSDM) conference. WSDM’22 will take place online from February 21 to February 25, 2022.

The WSDM 2022 Tutorial Program is intended to disseminate information to conference attendees on recently emerging topics and trends, provide surveys of complementary techniques to those commonly studied at WSDM, and inform industrial practitioners on the state-of-the-art within the field. We encourage submissions of proposals on topics in the general areas of web search, data mining, information retrieval, and social search. WSDM historically has drawn audiences from both academia and industry. This should be taken into consideration in the proposal. Tutorials will be given by experts in the subject matter.
