************************************************************* ICDM'09: The 9th IEEE International Conference on Data Mining ************************************************************* Sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society

December 6-9, 2009 Miami, U.S.A. http://www.cs.umbc.edu/ICDM09/

Important Dates April 13, 2009 Deadline for Workshop Proposals April 30, 2009 Deadline for ICDM Contest Proposals June 26, 2009 Deadline for Paper Submission, Tutorial Submission, and Panel Proposals July 7, 2009 Deadline for Exhibits and Demos Proposals September 4, 2009 Notification to authors September 28, 2009 Deadline for camera-ready copies December 6-9, 2009 Conference

Call for Papers *************** The IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (ICDM) has established itself as the world's premier research conference in data mining. The 2009 edition of ICDM provides a leading forum for presentation of original research results, as well as exchange and dissemination of innovative, practical development experiences. The conference covers all aspects of data mining, including algorithms, software and systems, and applications. In addition, ICDM draws researchers and application developers from a wide range of data mining related areas such as statistics, machine learning, pattern recognition, databases and data warehousing, data visualization, knowledge-based systems, and high performance computing. By promoting novel, high quality research findings, and innovative solutions to challenging data mining problems, the conference seeks to continuously advance the state-of-the-art in data mining. Besides the technical program, the conference will feature workshops, tutorials, panels, and the ICDM data mining contest.

Paper Submissions ***************** High quality papers in all data mining areas are solicited. Original papers exploring new directions will receive especially careful consideration. Papers that have already been accepted or are currently under review for other conferences or journals will not be considered for ICDM'09.

Paper submissions should be limited to a maximum of 10 pages in the IEEE 2-column format, the same as the camera-ready format (see the IEEE Computer Society Press Proceedings Author Guidelines http://www.ieeeconfpublishing.org/cpir/AuthorKit.asp? Community=CPS&Facility=CPS_Dec&ERoom=ICDM+2008). All papers will be reviewed by the Program Committee on the basis of technical quality, relevance to data mining, originality, significance, and clarity. A double blind review process will be adopted. Authors should avoid using identifying information in the text of the paper. A Submission Form to submit your work will be announced on the ICDM'09 website.

Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings by the IEEE Computer Society Press and accorded oral presentation times in the main conference. Submissions accepted as regular papers will be allocated 10 pages in the proceedings. Submissions accepted as short papers will be allocated 6 pages in the proceedings and will have a shorter presentation time at the conference than regular papers.

A selected number of IEEE ICDM'09 accepted papers will be invited for possible inclusion, in expanded and revised form, in the Knowledge and Information Systems journal published by Springer-Verlag.

ICDM Best Paper Awards ********************** IEEE ICDM Best Paper Awards will be conferred at the conference on the authors of (1) the best research paper, (2) the best application paper, and (3) the best student paper. Strong, foundational results will be considered for the best research paper award and application-oriented submissions will be considered for the best application paper award. The best student paper award will be given to the authors of the best paper written solely by one or more students.

Workshops and Tutorials *********************** ICDM'09 will host short and long tutorials as well as workshops that focus on new research directions and initiatives. All accepted workshop papers will be included in a separate workshop proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society Press.

ICDM Data Mining Contest ************************ ICDM'09 will host a data mining contest to challenge researchers and practitioners with a real practical data mining problem. For further details on proposals and expression of interest, please see the Call for Data Mining Contest Proposals.

ICDM Exhibits and Demos *********************** The ICDM'09 Exhibit and Demo section will consist of an Exhibit Session and a Demo Session. The Exhibit Session will offer opportunities to distribute product, service, and company literature, give demonstrations and carry out recruitment activities. The Demo Session will provide data mining researchers and practitioners an exciting and highly interactive way to explore new ideas and results.

ICDM'09: The 9th IEEE International Conference on Data Mining ************************************************************** Sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society

December 6-9, 2009 Miami, U.S.A. http://www.cs.umbc.edu/ICDM09/

Important Dates for Tutorials ***************************** * June 26, 2009 : Tutorial proposal due * July 31, 2009 : Notification

Call for Tutorials ****************** The International Conference on Data Mining series (ICDM) is well established as a top ranked research conference in data mining, providing a premier forum for presentation of original research results, as well as exchange and dissemination of innovative, practical development experiences. The conference covers all aspects of data mining, including algorithms, software and systems, and applications. In addition, ICDM draws researchers and application developers from a wide range of data mining related areas such as statistics, machine learning, pattern recognition, databases and data warehousing, data visualization, knowledge-based systems, and high performance computing. ICDM ’09 will be the ninth edition of the series. ICDM'09 will host tutorials covering topics in data mining of interest to the research community as well as application developers. The tutorials will be part of the main conference technical program, and are free of charge to the attendees of the conference.

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. A tutorial should not mainly focus on only the presenters’ previous work. Tutorials on interdisciplinary directions, novel and fast growing directions, and significant applications are highly encouraged. ICDM will provide an honorarium for each tutorial. It is possible, depending on actual conference attendance, that the conference can (partly) support travel and subsistence expenses for tutorial speakers. Please provide an estimate for these expenses in your proposal if you are expecting the conference to cover these expenses for you. We will assume that the tutorial speakers will be able to cover these expenses from their own sources if no estimate is included in their proposals. A tutorial proposal should be formatted in the following sections.

* Title * Abstract (up to 150 words) * Rationale of presenting the tutorial at ICDM 2009 (up to 200 words) * Target audience and prerequisites (up to 50 words) * A list of forums and their time and locations if the tutorial or a similar/highly related tutorial has been presented by the same author(s) before, and highlight the similarity/difference between those and the one proposed for ICDM 2009 (up to 100 words for each entry) * A list of tutorials on the same/similar/highly related topics given by other people, and highlight the difference between yours and theirs (up to 100 words for each entry) * A list of other tutorials given by the authors, please list the titles, the presenters and the forums only. * Tutors’ short bio and their expertise related to the tutorial (up to 100 words per tutor) * An outline of the tutorial in the form of a bullet list (up to 1 page) * Length of the tutorial: short (1.5-2 hours) or long (3-4 hours). 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 of the previous tutorials given by the authors, and any specific audio/vedio/computer requirements for the tutorial

How to Submit ************* Please kindly send your proposal by email to Sanghamitra Bandyopadhyay sanghami@isical.ac.in
