The 18th IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (IEEE ICDM 2018) includes half- or full-day workshops that complement the overall technical program events, with the goal of expanding new directions and application of data mining for both practitioners and researchers in a particular subject area. The workshop is expected to be held on November 17th 2018. These workshops provide a more focused, in-depth venue for presentations, discussions and interaction. The workshop proposals will be peer-reviewed with a focus on submissions that inspire deep and interactive dialogue in topics that are of interest to the data mining community.
