4th International Workshop on Mining Complex Data - MCD'08 -<br />
In Conjonction with IEEE Int. Conf. on Data Mining 2008<br />
Pisa, Italy, 15th Dec. 2008 <br />
<br />
Data mining and knowledge discovery can today be considered as stable fields with numerous efficient methods and studies that have been proposed to extract knowledge from data. Nevertheless, the famous golden nugget is still challenging. Actually, the context evolved since the first definition of the KDD process and knowledge has now to be extracted from data getting more and more complex. The structure of the data, for instance, doesn't match the attribute-value format when considering the web, texts or videos. <br />
<br />
In the framework of Data Mining, many software solutions were developed for the extraction of knowledge from tabular data (which are typically obtained from relational databases). Methodological extensions were proposed to deal with data initially obtained from other sources, like in the context of natural language (text mining) and image (image mining). KDD has thus evolved following a unimodal scheme instantiated according to the type of the underlying data (tabular data, text, images, etc), which, in the end, always leads to working on the classical double entry tabular format.<br />
<br />
However, in a large number of application domains, this unimodal approach appears to be too restrictive. Consider for instance a corpus of medical files. Each file can contain tabular data such as results of biological analyzes, textual data coming from clinical reports, image data such as radiographies, echograms, or electrocardiograms. In a decision making framework, treating each type of information separately has serious drawbacks. It appears therefore more and more necessary to consider these different data simultaneously, thereby encompassing all their complexity. Many examples of complex data can thus be found in potential knowledge extraction processes. These data can be:<br />
<br />
* Semi-structured or unstructured <br />
* Sensor data such as scientific or medical data <br />
* Representing the same information at different periods <br />
* Grouping different kinds of information (images, text, ontologies, etc.) <br />
* Hence, a natural question arises: how could one combine information of different nature and associate them with a same semantic unit, which is for instance the patient? On a methodological level, one could also wonder how to compare such complex units via similarity measures. The classical approach consists in aggregating partial dissimilarities computed on components of the same type. However, this approach tends to make superposed layers of information. It considers that the whole entity is the sum of its components. By analogy with the analysis of complex systems, it appears that knowledge discovery in complex data can not simply consist of the concatenation of the partial information obtained from each part of the object. The aim would rather be to discover more "global" knowledge giving a meaning to the components and associating them with the semantic unit. This fundamental information cannot be extracted by the currently considered approaches and the available tools.<br />
<br />
The new data mining strategies shall take into account the specificities of complex objects (units with which are associated the complex data). These specificities are summarized hereafter: <br />
<br />
Different kind. The data associated to an object are of different types. Besides classical numerical, categorical or symbolic descriptors, text, image or audio/video data are often available. <br />
Diversity of the sources. The data come from different sources. As shown in the context of medical files, the collected data can come from surveys filled in by doctors, textual reports, measures acquired from medical equipment, radiographies, echograms, etc. <br />
Evolving and distributed. It often happens that the same object is described according to the same characteristics at different times or different places. For instance, a patient may often consult several doctors, each one of them producing specific information. These different data are associated with the same subject. <br />
Linked to expert knowledge. Intelligent data mining should also take into account external information, also called expert knowledge, which could be taken into account by means of ontology. In the framework of oncology for instance, the expert knowledge is organized under the form of decision trees and is made available under the form of ?best practice guides? called Standard Option Recommendations (SOR). <br />
Dimensionality of the data. The association of different data sources at different moments multiplies the points of view and therefore the number of potential descriptors. The resulting high dimensionality is the cause of both algorithmic and methodological difficulties. <br />
The difficulty of Knowledge Discovery in complex data lies in all these specificities.<br />
<br />
The aim of this workshop is to address issues related to the concept of mining complex data. The whole knowledge discovery process being involved, our goal will be to attract papers dealing with each step of this process. Actually, managing complex data within the KDD process implies to work on every step, starting from the pre-processing (e.g. structuring and organizing) to the visualization and interpretation (e.g. sorting or filtering) of the results, via the data mining methods themselves (e.g. classification, clustering, frequent patterns extraction, etc.). Papers are invited in all KDD fields that involve complex data, including, but not limited to:<br />
<br />
* Pre-processing, structuring and organizing complex data <br />
* Handling missing or wrong values <br />
* Data fusion, result fusion <br />
* Methods and algorithms for mining complex data <br />
* Mining heterogeneous data <br />
* Knowledge integration into the KDD process <br />
* Post-processing, visualization and interpretation support <br />
* Applications and experience feedback <br />
* Information retrieval in complex data bases <br />
* Ontology and metadata<br />
<br />
The workshop will consist in a series of communications (oral presentations or poster). A reasonable time will be left for the discussion after each presentation. All the articles will be reviewed by at least two references with a double aim of improving quality and giving advice to the authors. A dedicated place will be given to the young researchers with a session (Position paper) grouping the works in progress in various teams. This can be a good occasion for a PhD student or a young researcher to present his/her starting project. This session will be particularly significant for works on their beginning and for the establishment of research groups on shared topics. Demonstrations of research results could be associated with the poster presentations.<br />
<br />
The submitted manuscript should closely reflect the final paper as it will appear in the Proceedings.<br />
<br />

==SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS==<br />
<br />
===PAPERS===<br />
Papers should be formatted as they would appear in the final LNCS<br />
proceedings. Papers should be at most 15 pages in length, including<br />
the bibliography. Detailed submission instructions can be found at<br />
the conference web site. One of the authors of an accepted paper must<br />
attend the conference to present the paper. ICISS accepts only<br />
electronic submissions in PDF format. Camera-ready manuscripts must be<br />
submitted in LaTex.<br />
<br />
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap with papers published<br />
or currently submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings.<br />
<br />
===ONGOING RESEARCH REPORTS===<br />
There will be two sessions to present reports on the current research<br />
projects. One session will be for academic institutions and the other<br />
for industrial establishments. The research reports should be<br />
submitted in the same way as the technical papers. A report should be<br />
maximum of 4 pages.<br />
<br />
===TUTORIAL PROPOSALS===<br />
There will be tutorial program for two days (16-17 December 2008). At<br />
most four three-hour tutorials will be offered. Proposals are invited<br />
for tutorials of duration three hours on relevant topics of current<br />
interest. A tutorial proposal should include the extended abstract of<br />
the tutorial and a brief biography of the speaker(s). Please mail your<br />
proposal to the Tutorial Chair. The speaker(s) of the accepted<br />
proposals need to submit their final presentation one month before the<br />
conference to the Tutorial Chair.</div>92.117.185.95https://www.openresearch.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=QAPL_2009&diff=10983QAPL 20092008-12-14T12:28:38Z<p>92.117.185.95: </p>

CALL FOR PAPERS Seventh Workshop on Quantitative Aspects of Programming<br />
Languages (QAPL 2009) Affiliated with ETAPS 2009 March 28-29, 2009, York, UK<br />
http://wwwtcs.inf.tu-dresden.de/ALGI/qapl09/<br />
<br />
==Scope==<br />
<br />
Quantitative aspects of computation are important and sometimes essential in<br />
characterising the behavior and determining the properties of systems. They <br />
are related to the use of physical quantities (storage space, time, bandwidth, <br />
etc.) as well as mathematical quantities (e.g. probability and measures for<br />
reliability, security and trust). Such quantities play a central role in<br />
defining both the model of systems (architecture, language design, semantics)<br />
and the methodologies and tools for the analysis and verification of system<br />
properties. The aim of this workshop is to discuss the explicit use of<br />
quantitative information such as time and probabilities either directly in the<br />
model or as a tool for the analysis of systems. In particular, the workshop<br />
focuses on:<br />
<br />
* the design of probabilistic, real-time, quantum languages and the definition of semantical models for such languages<br />
* the discussion of methodologies for the analysis of probabilistic and timing properties (e.g. security, safety, schedulability) and of other quantifiable properties such as reliability (for hardware components), trustworthiness (in information security) and resource usage (e.g., worst-case memory/stack/cache requirements)<br />
* the probabilistic analysis of systems which do not explicitly incorporate quantitative aspects (e.g. performance, reliability and risk analysis)<br />
* applications to safety-critical systems, communication protocols, control systems, asynchronous hardware, and to any other domain involving quantitative issues<br />
<br />
==Topics==<br />
Topics include (but are not limited to) probabilistic, timing and general<br />
quantitative aspects in: Language design, Information systems, Asynchronous HW<br />
analysis, Language extension, Multi-tasking systems, Automated reasoning,<br />
Language expressiveness, Logic, Verification, Quantum languages, Semantics,<br />
Testing, Time-critical systems, Performance analysis, Safety, Embedded systems,<br />
Program analysis, Risk and hazard analysis, Coordination models, Protocol<br />
analysis, Scheduling theory, Distributed systems, Model-checking, Security,<br />
Biological systems, Concurrent systems, ...<br />
<br />
<br />
==Invited Speaker==<br />
* Vincent Danos, Universite Paris Diderot - Paris 7, France.<br />
* Jane Hillston, University of Edinburgh, UK.<br />
<br />
==Submissions==<br />
In order to encourage participation and discussion, this workshop solicits two<br />
types of submissions - regular papers and presentations:<br />
<br />
1. Regular paper submissions must be original work, and must not have been previously published, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere. Regular paper submission must not exceed 15 pages, possibly followed by a clearly marked appendix which will be removed for the proceedings and contains technical material for the reviewers.<br />
<br />
2. A presentation reports on recent or ongoing work on relevant topics and ideas, for timely discussion and feedback at the workshop. There is no restriction as for previous/future publication of the contents of a presentation. Typically, a presentation is based on a paper which recently appeared (or which is going to appear) in the proceedings of another recognized conference, or which has not yet been submitted. The (extended) abstract of presentation submissions should not exceed 4 pages.<br />
<br />
All submissions must be in PDF format and use the ENTCS style files.<br />
Submissions can be made on the following website: <br />
www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=qapl09<br />
The program co-chairs can be contacted at: <br />
qapl09chairs@tcslist.inf.tu-dresden.de<br />
The workshop PC will review all submissions of both types to select appropriate<br />
ones for acceptance in each category, based on their relevance, merit, <br />
originality, and technical content. The authors of the accepted submissions of<br />
both types are expected to present and discuss their work at the workshop.<br />
Accepted regular papers will be published in Elsevier's ENTCS. Publication of a<br />
selection of the papers in a special issue of a journal is under consideration.<br />
<br />
<br />
