PAKDD 2023 Call for Workshops
https://pakdd2023.org/cfw/

The Pacific-Asia Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (PAKDD) is one of the longest established and leading international conferences in the areas of data mining and knowledge discovery. The 27th edition of PAKDD will be held in Osaka, Japan, from May 25 to May 28, 2023. The PAKDD 2023 organizing committee invites workshop proposals on foundational and emerging topics in areas related to data mining. The PAKDD workshops provide an informal and vibrant opportunity for researchers and industry practitioners to share their research positions, original research results and practical development experiences on specific challenges and emerging issues. Each workshop should be focused on a cohesive theme so that participants can benefit from interaction with each other.

## Topics of Interest
Workshop topics typically match those identified in the PAKDD 2023 call for papers, but proposals concerned with other areas of data mining and knowledge discovery are welcome. Interdisciplinary workshops that explore the convergence of data mining and knowledge discovery with various disciplines are also encouraged.

## Format
Workshops are scheduled to be held at the beginning of the conference, May 25, 2023. Workshops will be held entirely online. Workshop papers will not be included in the conference proceedings but available on the PAKDD 2023 webpage.

## Duties
The organizers of accepted workshops are expected to disseminate the call for papers, gather submissions, form the program committees, conduct the reviewing process, and decide upon the final workshop program.
