Note that the cfp explicitly identifies "the Web, Semantics, and Data Mining" as one of the five topics. -- NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION WORKSHOP ON NEXT GENERATION DATA MINING AND CYBER-ENABLED DISCOVERY FOR INNOVATION Inner Harbor, Baltimore, USA 10-12 October 2007 http://www.cs.umbc.edu/~hillol/NGDM07/ GENERAL CHAIR Hillol Kargupta Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, University of Maryland, Baltimore County & Agnik Web: http://www.cs.umbc.edu/~hillol E-mail: ngdm07 at agnik dot com STEERING COMMITTEE Rakesh Agrawal, Microsoft Research Christos Faloutsos, Carnegie Mellon University Jiawei Han, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Hillol Kargupta, University of Maryland, Baltimore County Vipin Kumar, University of Minnesota Rajeev Motwani, Stanford University Philip Yu, IBM T. J. Watson Research Center SCOPE The dramatic increase in the availability of data from various sources is creating many fundamental challenges in computing, storage, communication, and human computer interaction issues for data mining. Scientists, engineers, and businesses are facing with emerging problems that involve complex networked observations, massive simulation-data sets, and ubiquitous sensory data streams. These heterogeneous data sources should be linked and analyzed for discovering the next frontiers of science, arts, and technology. We also need to look beyond the current cyber-infrastructure and explore how the next generation of networked data mining applications will support such large-scale, ubiquitous, multi-source, and data intensive domains. This National Science Foundation workshop on Next Generation Data Mining and Cyber Enabled Discovery for Innovation (NGDM’07) will bring together data mining researchers, scientists, and engineers from a diverse background along with domain experts for various emerging problems that are relevant to Cyber Enabled Discovery for Innovation (CDI). The objective is to enhance the understanding of the research problems and facilitate creating an environment for better understanding the challenges in front of the data mining and the CDI community. NGDM’07 will focus on the following areas: (1) Data Mining in e-Science and Engineering (2) Media, Pervasive Computing, and Ubiquitous Data Mining (3) Data mining in Security Surveillance, and Privacy Protection (4) Social Science, Finance, Digital Humanities, and Data Mining (5) The Web, Semantics, and Data Mining For more details please visit the workshop website. INVITED SPEAKERS NGDM'07 will have many invited speakers. The list includes: Alessandro Acquisti, Carnegie Mellon University Rakesh Agrawal, Microsoft Research Gerbrand Ceder and Chris Fischer, MIT Alok Choudhary, Northwestern University Christos Faloutsos, Carnegie Mellon University David Goldberg, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Robert Grossman, University of Illinois at Chicago Ian Foster, Argonne National Laboratory and University of Chicago Jiawei Han, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Hyam Hirsh, National Science Foundation and Rutgers University James Hendler, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Matt Kirschenbaum, University of Maryland, College Park Vipin Kumar, University of Minnesota Michael May, Fraunhofer Institute for Intelligent Analysis and Information Systems Srinivasan Parthasarathy, Ohio State University Raghu Ramakrishnan, Yahoo! Research Steven Salzberg, University of Maryland, College Park Jaideep Srivastava, University of Minnesota Philip Yu, IBM T. J. Watson Research Center More to be announced soon...... CALL FOR PAPERS We would like to invite paper (extended abstract) submissions from data mining researchers and practitioners. The papers should be relevant to the focus areas of NGDM'07. The papers must present innovative research directions that may be suitable for the agenda of the workshop. Submitted papers should not exceed 5 pages. The workshop will accept only electronic submission of papers in PDF format to ngdm07 at agnik dot com with "NGDM07 Submission" in the subject line. The papers will be included in the NSF Workshop Proceedings. The workshop will also produce an edited book. Extended versions of the selected papers will be included in the book. IMPORTANT DATES Submission deadline: September 3, 2007 Notification: September 14, 2007 Camera-ready due: September 28, 2007 Workshop: October 10--12, 2007 Pre-Registration Deadline: September 21, 2007
