几个常用场景：

1、同行合作

A researcher from industry has made a breakthrough in her research area. To collaborate with her peers from academia,she may want to find a suitable academic venue (conference) that she is not very aware of.

针对在本领域工业界已有建树，想找到学术届同行，并向找到合适的会议参见的研究员。 2、初级学者 A junior researcher, i.e., a researcher who is at the initial stage of her research and has no or very few publications, intends to extend her research area. But a lack of knowledge about appropriate academic venues becomes a challenge for her to explore newer areas. 针对初级学者，没有或论文数量很少，对本领域的学术场所缺乏了解。 3、跨领域者 A veteran researcher knows her research area very well,but when she ventures into a new field or works in an interdisciplinary area, may look for a cross-field venue recommendation. 研究经验丰富的研究员想尝试新的领域或跨学科工作，对新领域不甚了解。 4、期刊合作 A journal may merge with some other related journal with modified scopes and objectives. The researchers may not be aware of such developments. 一个期刊出版商想与其他出版商合作等。（目前较少关注点） 出自论文：A hybrid personalized scholarly venue recommender system integrating social network analysis and contextual similarity（Tribikram Pradhan , Sukomal Pal著，印度理工学院）
