Meetings

Dear Colleagues,

We like to invite you to participate in the 3rd Intern. Conference on Machine Learning and Data Mining in Pattern Recognition MLDM`2003 at Renaissance Hotel Leipzig / Germany, July 5-7, 2003

For further information please look at http://www.ibai-research.de under link MLDM`2003

Co-chairs Petra Perner IBaI Leipzig / Germany

Azriel Rosenfeld University of Maryland / USA

The aim of the conference is to bring together researchers from all over the world who deal with machine learning and data mining in order to discuss the recent status of the research and to direct further developments. Basic research papers as well as application papers are welcome. All kinds of applications are welcome but special preference will be given to multimedia related applications, biomedical applications, and webmining. MLDM03 continues in a series of MLDM events that originally started out as workshops. Paper submissions should be related but not limited to any of the following topics:

• inductive learning including decision tree and rule induction learning
• conceptual learning and clustering
• case-based reasoning and learning
• similarity measures and learning of similarity
• association rules
• visualization and data mining
• video mining
• mining structural representations such as log files, text documents and HTML documents
• statistical learning and neural net based learning
• classification and interpretation of images, text, video
• organisational learning and evolutional learning
• probabilistic information retrieval
• mining gene data bases and biological data bases
• mining images, temporal-spatial data, images from remote sensing
• mining text documents
• knowledge extraction from text, video, signals and images
