Third International Workshop on Semantic Aspects in Data Mining (SADM)
In conjunction with the 2010 IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (ICDM 2010) Sydney, Australia, December 13, 2010 http://sadm2010.isti.cnr.it/ ***** Preliminary Call For Papers ***** Knowledge Discovery is the process of automatic extraction of new knowledge from data. However, the characteristics of the data, their semantics as well as the contextual knowledge that already exists about the data has rarely been explicitly incorporated into in the discovery process. Semantic and reasoning aspects may intervene in several steps of the discovery process, but how these aspects interact within the process, and the forms that this can take, is an issue that has been given little attention so far. The workshop will seek submissions where semantic information plays an explicit role in the knowledge discovery process. Contributions where general methods for exploiting semantics in the knowledge discovery process are introduced will be preferred. There are no limitations in the data mining sub-areas, ranging from biological data mining, privacy preserving data mining, web mining, text mining, spatio-temporal data mining and many others, provided a clear evidence on how semantics improves the quality of the mining process (e.g. in terms of more efficiency or more meaningful results) is clearly reported in the paper. More specifically, the aim of the workshop is to receive original contributions in the following topics, which are not exclusive: – Techniques to embed semantics into the discovery process – Semantics in data pre-processing and post-processing – Semantic-based pruning – Knowledge-based data mining algorithms – Semantic-based techniques for feature selection – Ontologies in data pre-processing and mining – Ontology-based evaluation of discovered patterns – Data Mining Query Languages – Constraint-based data mining – Conceptual modeling and data mining Important Dates: * July 23, 2010 : Due date for full workshop papers * September 20, 2010: Notification of paper acceptance to authors * October 11, 2010: Camera-ready of accepted papers * December 13, 2010: Workshop date Workshop Organizers: Dr. Vania Bogorny, Instituto de Informatica, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, E-mail: vbogorny@inf.ufrgs.br Dr. Hui Xiong, Management Science and Information Systems Department, Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, Email: hxiong@rutgers.edu Dr. Chiara Renso, KDD Laboratory, ISTI-CNR Pisa, Italy, CNR di Pisa Via G.
