IEEE ICDM 2020: Call for Tutorials (due Jul 10)
20th IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (IEEE ICDM 2020)
Sorrento, Italy
November 17-20, 2020
http://icdm2020.bigke.org/
The safety and well-being of all conference participants is our
priority.
We closely monitor the current COVID-19 situation. Depending on
the
situation, we will have the conference either as planned in
Sorrento, Italy
or as an online event. In any case, all deadlines and the
conference dates
remain the same. The Program Chairs and other organizers will post
more
information as soon as possible.
The 20th IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (IEEE ICDM
2020) will
host tutorials that focus on new research directions and
initiatives.
We invite proposals for tutorials from active researchers and
experienced
tutors. Ideally, a tutorial will cover the state-of-the-art
research,
development and applications in a specific data mining direction,
and
stimulate and facilitate future work. Tutorials on
interdisciplinary
directions, novel and fast growing directions, and significant
applications
are highly encouraged. We also encourage hands-on-tutorials that
allow
attendees to learn a particular suite of tools, software and
applications
that are relevant to the data mining community. Software and tools
should
preferably be open-sourced and readily available to all
participants.
We note that a tutorial should not only focus on the presenters'
previous
work. In principle, the tutorial authors' previous work should not
occupy
more than 50% of the tutorial coverage.
The tutorials are part of the main conference technical program,
and are
free of charge to the registrants of the conference.
The conference will provide the following support for each
tutorial:
* an honorarium of $500, and
* a complimentary registration for one of the tutorial presenters
who is
not also a presenting author.
Tutorial presenters will be responsible for covering all their
other
expenses.
FORMAT OF THE SUBMISSION
A tutorial proposal should be formatted into the following
sections:
* Title
* Abstract (up to 150 words)
* Rationale: Why do you believe this is an interesting and
significant
subject for the data mining and machine learning community at
large? Is
this tutorial or a similar one presented by the same or some
authors in
some other venues?
* Content details: An outline of the tutorial in the form of a
bulleted
list with references and estimates for the time that will be
devoted to
each subject (up to 1 page).
* Target audience and prerequisites (up to 100 words): From which
areas do
you expect potential participants to come? What prior knowledge,
if any, do
you expect from the audience? What will the participants learn?
How many
participants do you expect?
* Relevance and rationale of presenting the tutorial at ICDM 2020
(up to
200 words).
* A list of forums and their time, location, and the number of
attendees
(if available) if the tutorial or a similar/highly related
tutorial has
been presented by the same author(s) before, and a short
description
highlighting the similarity/difference between those and the one
proposed
for ICDM 2020 (up to 100 words for each entry).
* A list of tutorials on the similar/highly related topics given
by others,
and a short description highlighting the differences between yours
and
theirs (up to 100 words for each entry).
* Tutor's short bio and their expertise related to the tutorial
(up to 100
words per tutor).
* Proposed length of the tutorial: please choose from: 2.5 hours
(half-day)
and 5 hours (full day). If you are flexible, please indicate in
the outline
the content that will not be included if a short tutorial is
given.
* A list of up to 20 most important references that will be
covered in the
tutorial.
* (Optional) URLs of the slides/notes/video of the previous
tutorials given
by the authors, and any specific audio/video/computer requirements
for the
tutorial.
