Date: Wed, 20 Jan 1999 14:57:56 MET+0100DST From: Rauch Jan Rauch@vse.cz Subject: CFP: PKDD'99, Prague, Sep 15-18, 1999 Web: http://lisp.vse.cz/pkdd99/3rd EUROPEAN CONFERENCE ON PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF KNOWLEDGE DISCOVERY IN DATABASES PRAGUE, September 15-18, 1999 http://lisp.vse.cz/pkdd99/ ABOUT PKDD'99 Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) have emerged from a combination of many research areas: databases, statistics, machine learning, automated scientific discovery, inductive logic programming, artificial intelligence, visualization, decision science, and high performance computing. While each of these areas can contribute in specific ways, KDD focuses on the value that is added by creative combination of the contributing areas. The goal of PKDD '99 is to provide a European- based forum for interaction among all theoreticians and practitioners interested in data mining. Interdisciplinary collaboration is one desired outcome, but the main long-term focus is on theoretical principles for the emerging discipline of KDD and on practical applications of discovery systems that are built on those principles. We seek the KDD-specific principles that go beyond each contributing area. We seek a new generation of applications that go beyond applications developed in each contributing area. LOCATION PKDD'99 will take place in Prague, Czech Republic, at the campus of the University of Economics, 15 minutes walking distance from the historical center of Prague. PROGRAM - invited talks by KDD leaders and experts - oral and poster presentations of innovative research papers - software demonstrations - panel discussions - discovery challenge - tutorials PROGRAM CHAIRS Jan Zytkow Univ. of North Carolina, Charlotte e-mail: zytkow@uncc.edu Jan Rauch University of Economics, Prague e-mail: rauch@vse.cz IMPORTANT DATES Tutorial proposals submission deadline: May 15th, 1999 Panel proposals submission deadline: May 15th, 1999 Demo proposals submission deadline: July 15th, 1999 Discovery Challenge papers submission: July 1st, 1999 Abstract submission deadline: May 1st, 1999 Papers submission deadline: May 4th, 1999
