CALL FOR PAPERS
DSDM'11: 1st PAKDD Doctoral Symposium on Data Mining
(Held in conjunction with PAKDD'11 , Shenzhen, China, May 24-27, 2011)
http://lamda.nju.edu.cn/conf/dsdm11/
(Papers Due: 23:59 (PST), January 18, 2011)
==============================================================================
 
**** Due to multiple requests, our submission deadline has been extended  *****

The 1st PAKDD Doctoral Symposium on Data Mining (DSDM'11) aims to provide a forum for Ph.D. students and junior researchers who have just received their Ph.D. degrees, where the participants can have the opportunity to present and discuss their recent works on data mining foundations, techniques and applications with senior researchers in the community. The goals of this symposium are:
  * Allowing Ph.D. students to seek for constructive feedbacks and advices from senior researchers;
  * Bridging possible research collaborations;
  * Contributing to the conference goals by interacting with other researchers at the main conference.

The authors that satisfy the following conditions are invited to submit their manuscripts related all aspects of data mining to the symposium:
  * The first author or corresponding author of the paper is a Ph.D. candidate;
  * The first author or corresponding author of the paper just received his/her Ph.D. degree within 2 years.

The best paper award of DSDM'11 will be granted to the Ph.D. student who submitted his/her original work to the symposium, based on the evaluation from the PC members.
A registration (either regular or student) covers the access to both doctoral symposium and the PAKDD'11 main conference.
**** Extended version of the selected papers on DSDM'11 will be invited to an EI-indexed journal "Frontiers of Computer Science in China" (Springer).
