                         Call for Datasets

        **************************************************

The UC Irvine Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) Archive is a new
online repository (http://kdd.ics.uci.edu/) of large datasets which
encompasses a wide variety of data types, analysis tasks, and
application areas. The primary role of this repository is to serve as
a benchmark testbed to enable researchers in knowledge discovery and
data mining to scale existing and future data analysis algorithms to
very large and complex data sets.

This archive is supported by the Information and Data Management
Program at the National Science Foundation, and is intended to expand
the current UCI Machine Learning Database Repository
(http://www.ics.uci.edu/~mlearn/MLRepository.html) to datasets that
are orders of magnitude larger and more complex.

We are seeking submissions of large, well-documented datasets that can
be made publicly available. Data types and tasks of interest include,
but is not limited to:

         Data Types                 Tasks

         multivariate               classification
         time series                regression
         sequential                 clustering
         relational                 density estimation
         text/web                   retrieval
         image                      causal modeling
         spatial                    visualization
         multimedia                 discovery
         transactional              exploratory data analysis
         heterogeneous              data cleaning
         sound/audio                recommendation systems


Submission Guidelines: Please see the UCI KDD Archive web site for
detailed instructions.
