Meetings

Interface 2006 will be held May 24-27, 2006 at the Westin Hotel in Pasadena, California; the theme is Massive Data Sets and Streams. We look forward to a vibrant program focussing on modern problems related to data and information overload, and what we as professional data analysts can contribute to their solution. Topics areas include but are not limited to medicine, statistics and the arts, physics, forensics, telecommunications, climate and weather, Earth science, public policy, the internet, alcoholism, genomics, streaming data, siesmology, text mining, data fusion, and information technology. However, we expect and strongly encourage contributions related to other topics, techniques and applications relevant to the theme, including all areas of data mining. In addition we hope to attract discipline scientists who will share their problems and solutions with us, whether or not those solutions appeal to traditional statistical or data mining methods.
