Call For Papers
AusDM 2006 The Australasian Data Mining Conference
29 November - 1 December Sydney, Australia
Conference Website: http://ausdm06.togaware.com/
Submissions due: 7 August 2006
Data mining, the art and science of intelligent analysis of (usually large) data sets for meaningful (and previously unknown) insights, is now being actively applied in industries including Financial Services, Government, Insurance, Telecommunications, Retail and Distribution, Transportation, and Utilities. A popular application of data mining across industries is customer analytics, where the goal is to understand customers and better service those customers, whether this is through marketing, stock management, or fraud discovery.
The Australasian Data Mining Conference has established itself as the premier Australasian meeting for both practitioners and researchers in data mining. AusDM02, AusDM03, AusDM04 and AusDM05 have showcased research in data mining, providing a forum for presenting and discussing the latest research and developments. A book (Data Mining: Theory, Methodology, Techniques, and Applications, LNCS 3755 / 2006) has been published by Springer in their State-of-the-Art Lecture Notes in Computer Science series, based on research papers from the recent conferences.
This years' conference, AusDM06, builds on this tradition of facilitating the cross-disciplinary exchange of ideas, experience and potential research directions, to also explicitly cover advances in the practise of data mining through:
* A Showcase of the Best Industry Case Studies - a special session for industry case studies;
* A Showcase of Research Prototypes - a special session for demonstration of "state-of-the-art" prototypes of data mining and analytics technology;
* An Express Overview of the "State-of-the-art" to Come - a special session for very brief (10 minute) overviews on current research, applications, products.
* A Showcase of Practical Analytics Technology - a series of practical tutorials on a range of data mining techniques with a broad range of data mining tools, delivered by experts in the field.
* A Showcase of Research Student Projects - a special session for PhD and masters students presenting their current research, and to discuss their projects with and the wider data mining community.
This years' conference will be a meeting place for pushing forward the frontiers of data mining in industry and academia.
PAPERS
We are calling for papers, both research and applications, and from both academia and industry, for presentation at the conference. All papers will go through blind, peer-review by a panel of international experts. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings for distribution at the conference. Selected papers will then be further revised and extended, for publication in a collected volume.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
The major topics of the conference include but are not limited to:
* Implementations of Data Mining in Industry * Evaluation of Results and their Communication * Infrastructure for Data Mining * Computational Aspects of Data Mining * Integrating Domain Knowledge * Data Preparation, Cleaning and Preprocessing * Data Integration, Matching and Linkage * Variable Selection and Generation * Professional Challenges in Data Mining * Embedded Data Mining Technologies * New Directions in Data Mining: o Web Mining o Text Mining o Multimedia Mining o Network and Process Mining o Spatial and Temporal Data Mining o Privacy-preserving Data Mining o Visualisation Techniques for Visual Data Mining o Applications and Case Studies - Lessons and Experiences o Health Data Mining o Financial Data Mining o e-Business and Virtual Communities o Qualitative Research o Design Computing o Bioinformatics
We encourage submissions of `greenhouse' work (research in progress), which might present early stages of cutting-edge research and development. Software demonstrations and submissions are also welcome. We are creating a repository of software as a freely available service. The format of the conference will accommodate full paper presentations and short presentations about a work in progress, overview of a data mining group or software demonstration.
SUBMISSION
The length of the submissions is not restricted. We encourage submissions of up to 10-15 pages. The first page of your submission should include the paper title; author name(s) and affiliation, address, email; keywords; and abstract. The second page should include the title of the paper, the abstract, keywords and the beginning of the paper, but should NOT include the author's names as the papers undergo a blind review process. The electronic submissions should be in PDF and made through the AusDM06 Submission Page (which will be made available at: http://ausdm06.togaware.com/.
We would like to encourage you follow the general format specified for Springer publications. Details are available from:
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html (follow the "Information for LNCS Authors" link).
Essentially, 10 point roman font on A4 paper with numbered section and subsection headings. LaTeX is the suggested typesetter.
