Call for Papers
22nd Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS'16) August 11-13, 2016 San Diego
Track: Decision Support and Analytics (SIGDSA) Mini-track: Text Analytics in Business and Societies
DESCRIPTION: The rapid rise of social media technologies such as Twitter, Facebook, Wikis, Blogs, and so on is producing colossal text corpora. Businesses, governments, and other non-business entities are exploiting these corpora to develop and improve decisions making as well as evaluate their impacts on organizations and societies. While the main focus remains on mining structured data, the growth of text corpora available online provides new avenues in various domains such as marketing, finance, economics, and politics. Researchers in the information systems, computer science, statistics, and linguistics disciplines are collaborating to define and assess new interdisciplinary theories and techniques related to text corpora.
To this end, the IS community is best fitted to lead this interdisciplinary research as it touches on information, data, design, and computer sciences which are relevant to the IS field. IS research can play a key role by exploring the opportunities and challenges that text corpora present in today's enterprises and societies. We welcome empirical, theoretical, conceptual, and methodological research related to big textual data analytics.
SUGGESTED TOPICS: Topics relevant for this mini-track include, but are not limited to: - Knowledge discovery, extraction, and retrieval in unstructured text - Text processing and classification - Security and Privacy in social media text mining - Challenges and Opportunities in social media corpora - Text Analytics of real-time social media content - Text analytics approaches in wikis, blogs and recommendation agents - Sentiment analysis and opinion mining - Information representation and visualization - Predictive text analytics - Pattern learning from text mining - Theme and Concept extraction - Emoticon, symbols, and text portrayals meanings - Information retrieval from different languages and dialects - Computational techniques - Mining crowd-generated textual data - Advances in Text Analytics SUBMISSION PROCESS: Full paper submissions must be made electronically through AMCIS 2016 Manuscript Submission Site https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/amcis2016.
