SDS2019 brings together opinion-leaders, practitioners, decision-makers and researchers with interest in Data Science. The goal is to foster the exchange of ideas for innovative products and services especially for the Swiss market and to sustain the community of Data Scientists. SDS2019 will have talks in 2 distinct streams of academic and business contributions. The accepted academic paper proceedings will be published in IEEE Xplore digital library. For businesses, talks having business impact and data-driven innovation concepts are invited and will be presented. Get access to trends, innovations, and technologies that you can directly use for the development of your products, solutions, and applications based on data, and use the breaks for networking and discussion with peers. * Awards * - Best Paper Award: The program committee will carefully evaluate the submitted papers according to their originality, contributions to the field, quality of presentation, and soundness of the science and will then select a paper for the best paper award that receives a cash price of CHF 1,500. - Best Presentation Award: The best presentation will be elected through an online voting system that is available for the participants during the conference. Keynote speakers will not be eligible for the best presentation price, which is a cash price of CHF 1,500. - Best Reproducibility Award: This award recognizes the best papers in terms of reproducibility. The criteria include flexibility, coverage, and code replication as well as data availability of the research work. The recipient of this award receives a cash prize of CHF 1,500. * Academic Track * We invite submissions of original research papers related to all aspects of data science, especially best practice and use-case oriented research work with technical depth and practical applicability. We also highly welcome innovative demos, show-cases, and awesome data products. ** Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) ** - artificial intelligence and autonomous machines - big data mining and analytics - data mining applications in healthcare, finance, and industry - data ethics and society - data integration, governance, and sharing - data intelligence and security - machine learning - natural language processing and analysis - predictive modelling and analytics - spatial data analysis - techniques and tools for data science - user interfaces and data visualization ** Submission ** - Full Paper: present high-quality research contributions, including experiment, analysis, or system papers, as well as descriptions of industrial and application results.
