A DECADE OF MINING THE WEB
A Special Issue in the Journal of Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery (DMKD
2010)
Call for Papers
The Web has changed our way of living, doing business, exchanging information,
establishing and maintaining social contacts. Scientists are investigating the
phenomenon of the Web from different perspectives. Scholars in knowledge
discovery and data mining have turned their attention towards the Web, almost
as soon as people started using the Web for a variety of private and business
activities. The analysis of human behavior in the Web and the support of
knowledge extraction and information acquisition have been the topic of
conferences and workshops for over a decade. Among them the WEBKDD workshop,
organized since 1999 under the auspices of the ACM SIGKDD international
conference on knowledge discovery and data mining, has served in establishing a
community of Web miners, identifying the challenges of the practitioners and
promoting innovative research solutions. About 10 years after this first
workshop on mining the Web, we take a fresh look on research achievements and
challenges ahead: we invite contributions that combine a retrospection of the
achievements in the last decade with an in-depth discussion of current trends
and new open problems for the next decade. We solicit both surveys with a
strong visionary portion, and visionary works that build upon a solid
methodological groundwork. Topics include but are not limited to:
* web analytics
* web search
* recommender systems
* personalization user modeling
* online communities social web mining
* Semantic Web
* computational social science
* mining from virtual worlds and games
Submission procedure:
The submission takes place in two phases. In the first phase, an extended
abstract PROPOSAL of up to 6 pages should be submitted for evaluation. It
should contain adequate information for the reviewers to assess the importance
of the topic addressed, the width and depth of the research associated with it
and the solidity of the vision promoted. Authors of accepted proposals will be
invited to submit full papers.
Manuscripts should be submitted to:
