Call For Papers

KDDSB10: Special Track on Knowledge Discovery and Decision
Systems in Biomedicine (http://www.unicampus.it/KDDSB10/)

at IEEE CBMS 2010: 23rd IEEE International Symposium on
COMPUTER-BASED MEDICAL SYSTEMS

October 12-15, 2010, Perth, Australia
---------------------------------------------------------------------

The vast amount of data generated by biomedical devices or
retrieved from archives motivates the development of tools that
are able to effectively and efficiently handle, analyse and
make use of this data.

On the one side, data mining has become a popular and effective way
of discovering new knowledge from large and complex data sets, and
particularly, medical data sets. Advances in data mining research and
technology have made it possible to solve many interesting problems in
medical diagnostics and healthcare.

On the other side, computer-based systems supporting the medical decisions
have attracted many research efforts. These systems can pursue different objectives,
such as pre-selecting the cases to be examined, serving as a second reader or
working as a tool for training and education of specialized medical personnel.
Currently, the development of versatile systems applicable to different working
scenarios is a major issue. Indeed, they call for careful design of data processing
methods as wells as the definition of decision rules. To the same extent, the
definition of performance evaluation criteria is mandatory to ensure that such
systems work safely and profitably.

This special track aims at bringing together researchers in the multi-disciplinary
area of knowledge discovery and computer-based decision systems in biomedicine,
and at providing a forum for the presentation and discussion of their research
activities. Engineers, scientists, psychologists, clinicians and computer and
cognitive scientists, as well as research project managers involved in such
biomedical projects are encouraged to submit papers to this special track.
