Abstracts due February 23, 2007
Paper submissions due February 28, 2007 (9 pages)

The ACM SIGKDD conference has established itself as the premier international conference on knowledge discovery and data mining. To continue with this tradition, the thirteenth ACM SIGKDD conference (KDD-07) will provide a forum for researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government to share their research and experience. The SIGKDD conference will feature keynote presentations, oral paper presentations, poster sessions, workshops, tutorials, and panels, as well as the KDD Cup competition. This year all accepted papers will give both oral and poster presentations, and will be the same length in the proceedings (9 pages in ACM 2-column format). KDD-07 will also award scholarships to selected students to help defray the cost of participating in the conference. Details will appear on the conference Web site as they become available.

KDD-07 will implement double-blind reviewing for research papers in which the identities of authors will be withheld from Program Committee members and reviewers. Therefore, authors' names and affiliations must not appear in the paper, and each paper and its bibliographic references must be written so as to preserve author anonymity. Detailed submission instructions will be provided on the conference submission website. All submissions will be handled electronically.

Papers on all aspects of knowledge discovery and data mining are solicited. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Applications of data mining (biomedicine, business, e-commerce, defense)
• Data mining for community generation, social network analysis, and graph-structured data
• Foundations of data mining
• High performance and parallel/distributed data mining
• Integration of data warehousing and data mining
