ECML-PKDD 2017 was very pleasant and nice. Skopje was an unexpected surprise. I am happy with each new conference that I attend, always meeting new people doing very good research. The community there was very nice in general!
I presented my paper at Matrix and Tensor Factorization session, and I was particularly happy with that, because even though the application we are working is recommender systems, we are focusing on the methods and proposing new factorization methods and models. Later in the night, we had the poster (poster-ecml2017) session at the Macedonian Opera & Ballet and afterward headed to the wine festival, just outside.
For those interested, my presentation slides here:
