Call for Papers First International Workshop on the Induction of Process Models

to be held at

International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML-2007) 24th of June 2007 Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon, USA

The workshop focuses on learning process models from observations and background knowledge. Although a large literature on time-series analysis exists, it emphasizes descriptive models that ignore the underlying mechanisms of the studied system. In contrast, the workshop centers on knowledge-aware learning approaches that refer to relevant scientific concepts. These methods work to uncover the mechanisms that generate observed behavior, to identify plausible state-transition networks, or to induce pathways that depict flux within the system. The resulting models may characterize behavior in qualitative, quantitative, or mixed representations with an emphasis on comprehensibility.

Key research directions in process-based modeling include knowledge-rich induction, learning in expressive languages, and modeling temporal and spatial data.
