Call for Papers - IDEA @ KDD 2015

KDD 2015 Workshop on Interactive Data Exploration and Analysis.
Monday, August 10. Sydney, Australia

IDEA is a full-day workshop organized in conjunction with the The ACM
SIGKDD Conference on Knowledge, Discovery and Data Mining in Sydney, Australia,
on 10 August 2015. Last year's IDEA at KDD 2014 was a great success, with almost 200 registrations. Join us this year in Australia!

Paper submission deadline: Fri, June 5, 2015, 23:59 Hawaii Time

* Workshop Goals

We aim to address the development of data mining techniques that allow users to
interactively explore their data, receiving near-instant updates to every requested refinement. Our focus and emphasis is on interactivity and effective integration of techniques from data mining, visualization and human-computer interaction. In other words, we explore how the best of these different, related domains can be combined such that the sum is greater than the parts.


* Topics of Interest include, but are not limited to

- Interactive data mining algorithms
- Visualizations for interactive data mining
- Demonstrations of interactive data mining
- Quick, high-level data analysis methods
- Any-time data mining algorithms
- Visual analytics
- Methods that allow meaningful intermediate results
- Data surrogates
- On-line algorithms
- Adaptive stream mining algorithms
- Theoretical/complexity analysis of instant data mining
- Learning from user input for action replication/prediction
- Active learning / mining


* Submission Information

We welcome both novel research papers, demo papers, work-in-progress papers,
and visionary papers. All papers will be peer reviewed.

Submissions should be in PDF, written in English, with a maximum of 10 pages.
Shorter papers are welcome.
