Goals of the Workshop
-----------------------
Online advertising is a rapidly growing, multi-billion dollar industry. In
the past two decades it has grown at least an order of magnitude faster
than advertising in other media. According to the Global Online Advertising
Spending Statistics the total internet advertisers spend in 2012 is
estimated at over 94.2 billion dollars and the prediction is it will reach
to 132 billion dollar by the end of 2014.

The dramatic growth of Internet advertising poses great challenges to the
information retrieval community and calls for new technologies to be
developed. Internet advertising is a complex problem. It has different
formats, including search advertising, display advertising, social network
advertising, in app/game advertising. It contains multiple parties (i.e.,
advertisers, users, publishers, and ad platforms such as ad exchanges),
which interact with each other harmoniously but exhibit a conflict of
interest when it comes to risk and revenue objectives.

To deliver contextual ads, most existing advertising systems conventionally
adopt simple keyword-matching-based advertising method, however, which may
not be effective to match appropriate ads against affective contents of the
current article/web-page and end user’s needs. For example, a blog written
by someone who is complaining on the quality of Sony camera might trigger
an ad of Sony Camera again since this ad matches the topic of the article
quite well. Another contrary example is that in case that the blogger
expresses in his article that he is quite satisfied with his recently
bought BMW; an ad of BMW might also be placed on the page. In both
situations, the blogger will get disturbed: in the first case the promoted
ad is just what he is complaining on while it seems to be needless for him
in the second case. In both examples, the mismatch arises from the fact
that the placement of ads fails to meet users’ actual needs due to the lack
of analysis into the sentiment of users, i.e. their
attitudes towards topics.
Several communities from Sentiment Analysis and Internet Advertising
domains have engaged themselves to conduct relevant
conferences/workshops/symposiums in their respective fields. The particular
goal of this workshop is to establish a knowledge bridge between these two
communities i.e. Ad Scientists and Sentiment Analysis researchers, and to
discuss future directions and challenges in research and development. We
expect the workshop to help develop a new multidisciplinary community of
researchers who are interested in these areas, and yield future
collaboration and exchanges.

Call For Papers
-----------------------
We invite original and unpublished research papers on all topics related to
the intersection of Internet advertising and sentiment analysis, including
but not limited to the sample topics below. Please note that we will also
consider submissions on mobile advertising. Digital advertising could be a
better alternative term in that case but we strict to the term Internet
Advertising for wide acceptability.
The following is a list of possible topics that may be covered in
contributions to this workshop:

- Why existing Ad methods fail to capture affect-sensitive Ads
•       Affect relevance studies for advertising
