Subject: KDD Cup and Workshop 2007: Competition begins

KDD Cup and Workshop 2007
Co-organized by ACM SIGKDD and Netflix
To be held at KDD-2007, San Jose, California, Aug 12-15, 2007

KDD Cup is the first and the oldest data mining competition, and is an integral part of the annual ACM SIGKDD International Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (KDD). This year's KDD Cup competition tasks are related to (but different from) the current Netflix Prize competition. There will also be a workshop at the KDD-2007 conference, where the participants of both the KDD Cup and the current Netflix Prize competition will present their papers and exchange ideas. We are looking forward to an interesting competition and your participation.

There are 2 different parallel options for participating:
1. The KDD Cup competition (open to all)

2. Workshop paper submissions (open to Netflix prize participants only).

Full details on each option are provided at:
