The Pacific-Asia Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (PAKDD)
is a leading international conference in the areas of data mining and
knowledge discovery (KDD). It provides an international forum for
researchers and industry practitioners to share their new ideas, original
research results and practical development experiences from all KDD
related areas, including data mining, data warehousing, machine learning,
aritificial intelligence, databases, statistics, knowledge engineering,
visualization, and decision-making systems. The conference calls for
research papers reporting original investigation results and industrial
papers reporting real data mining applications and system development
experience.

The topics of relevance for the conference papers include but not limited
to the following:

Novel models and algorithms
Clustering
Classification
Ranking
Association analysis
Anomaly detection
Data pre-processing
Feature extraction and selection
Mining heterogeneous data
