KDD Cup and Workshop 2007

Co-organized by ACM SIGKDD and Netflix

KDD Cup is the first and the oldest data mining competition, and is an integral part of the annual ACM SIGKDD International Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (www.kdd2007.com).

This year's KDD Cup will be related to (but different from) the current Netflix Prize competition (www.netflixprize.com/). There will also be a workshop at the KDD-07 conference, where the participants of both the KDD Cup and the current Netflix Prize competition will present their papers and exchange ideas.

The competition tasks, deadlines and prizes sponsored by Netflix will be announced in March 2007. We look forward to your active participation to make KDD Cup 2007 an exciting and academically rewarding event.
