19th ACM SIGKDD Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining Conference - First Call For Papers


19th ACM SIGKDD Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining Conference - First Call For Papers
August 11-14, 2013, Chicago, USA

KEY KDD 2013 DATES
------------------------------

 Abstracts due: February 15th, 2013
 Papers due: February 22nd, 2013
 Acceptance notification: May 10th, 2013
 Conference: August 11-14, 2013 (in Chicago)

About KDD
------------------------------




ACM KDD is the premier conference on data mining.
Paper submission and reviewing to KDD-2013 will be handled electronically. The paper length is limited to 9 pages, including references, diagrams, and appendices, if any. The format is the standard double-column ACM Tighter Alternate Proceedings Style. As per KDD tradition, reviews are not double-blind, and author names and affiliations should be listed. Authors should consult the conference Website for full details regarding paper preparation and submission guidelines.
Papers submitted to KDD-2013 should be original work and substantively different from papers that have been previously published or are under review in a journal or another conference/workshop. Accepted papers will be published in the
conference proceedings by ACM and also appear in the ACM Digital Library.
KDD is a dual track conference hosting both a research track and an industrial/government track. Due to the large number
of submissions, papers submitted to the research track will not be considered for publication in the industry/government
track and vice-versa. Authors are encouraged to carefully read the following and choose an appropriate track for their
submissions.

CALL FOR PAPERS - Research Track
--------------------------------
We invite submission of papers describing innovative research on all aspects of knowledge discovery and data mining.
Examples of topics of interest include, but are not limited to: social network analysis, classification and regression
methods, semi-supervised learning, unsupervised learning and clustering, graph and link mining, rule and pattern mining,
web mining, efficient or distributed mining algorithms, mining temporal and spatial data, probabilistic methods, text
mining, security and privacy, optimization techniques, recommender systems, mining sequences, topic and graphical models,
matrix and tensor methods, feature selection, online advertising, biological and medical data, anomaly detection, and
knowledge discovery from big data.
Papers emphasizing theoretical foundations are particularly encouraged, as are novel modeling and algorithmic approaches
to specific data mining problems in scientific, business, medical, and engineering applications. Visionary papers on new
and emerging topics are also welcome. Authors are explicitly discouraged from submitting papers that contain only
incremental results and that do not provide significant advances over existing approaches.
Application oriented papers that make innovative technical contributions to research are welcome.
Submitted papers will be assessed based on their novelty, technical quality, potential impact, and clarity of writing. For
papers that rely heavily on empirical evaluations, the experimental methods and results should be clear, well executed,
and repeatable. Authors are strongly encouraged to make data and code publicly available whenever possible.

CALL FOR PAPERS - Industrial and Government Track
-------------------------------------------------
We invite submissions describing implementations of data mining and analytics systems in industrial or government
settings. The primary emphasis is on papers that advance the understanding and dealing of practical issues related to
deploying analytics technologies in industry and government and highlight new research challenges motivated by analytics
and data mining applications. These applications can be in any field including, but not limited to e-commerce, medicine,
healthcare, defense, public policy, engineering, law, manufacturing, telecommunications, and government.
Submitted papers will go through a competitive peer review process. We would like to differentiate the Industry &
Government track from the Research Track by ensuring that submissions solve real-world problems and focus on deployments.
Submissions must clearly identify in which one of the following three areas they should be evaluated: “deployed”,
“discovery”, and “emerging”.
The criteria for submissions in each category is as follows:
Deployed category must describe deployment of a system that solves a non-trivial real-world problem. The focus should be
on describing the problem, it’s significance, decisions and tradeoffs made when making design choices for the solution,
deployment challenges, and lessons learned.
Discovery category must include results that are discoveries with demonstrable value to an industry or government
organization. This discovered knowledge must be “externally validated” as interesting and useful; it can not simply be a
model that has better performance on some traditional evaluation metrics such as accuracy or area under the curve.
Emerging category do not have to be deployed but must have clear applications to Industry/Government to distinguish them
from KDD research papers. They may also provide insight into issues and factors that affect the successful use and 
deployment of Data Mining and Analytics. Papers that describe enabling infrastructure for large-scale deployment of Data
Mining and analytics techniques also fall in this category.

==================================================================

Synergies of Knowledge Disciplines

The 13th International Conference on Knowledge Management and Knowledge Computing (I-KNOW 2013) will be held from September 4 to 6, 2013 at the Messe Congress in Graz, Austria. I-KNOW is a top-tier international conference in the areas of knowledge management and knowledge computing. Since 2001, it has successfully brought together leading researchers and developers from the these communities and attracted annually over 500 international attendees.

The purpose of the conference is to provide a crystallization point for different disciplines of knowledge management (such as Business Science and the Social Sciences)  and knowledge computing (such as knowledge discovery, social networks and context-aware computing). Renown researchers from these knowledge disciplines meet to identify challenging problems facing the development and introduction of future knowledge systems, and to shape future research directions through the publication of high quality, applied and theoretical research findings.

I-KNOW 2013 will continue the successful tradition of the conference series and will specifically provide interactive and innovative formats to support the synergies of knowledge management and knowledge computing fields. We encourage submissions of high quality papers on all topics in the general areas of knowledge & data analytics, social & ubiquitous computing, knowledge & innovation management, and science 2.0.

Based on successful collaboration, I-KNOW 2013 will continue the tradition of collocating with the I-SEMANTICS conference, the 9th International Conference on Semantic Systems (www.i-semantics.at<http://www.i-semantics.at>).
