Our aim for the biannual IDA symposia is to bring together a wide variety of researchers - academic, industrial, and otherwise - who are concerned with extracting knowledge from data, including people from statistics, machine learning, neural networks, computer science, pattern recognition, database management, and other areas. IDA 2003 is intended to stimulate interaction between these different areas, so that more powerful tools emerge for extracting knowledge from data and a better understanding is developed of the process of intelligent data analysis.

Important Dates

Publications

The proceedings will be published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series of Springer (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/). The proceedings of IDA 97, 99 and 01 appeared in this series as LNCS 1280, 1642 and 2189.

We also plan to have a special issue of the Intelligent Data Analysis journal (http://www.iospress.nl/site/html/1088467x.html) with extended versions of a number of papers presented during the symposium.
