Date: Wed, 17 Feb 1999 11:43:31 -0500 From: Se June Hing, sjhong@us.ibm.com Subject: Special Issue on Data Mining: IEEE Intelligence IEEE Intelligent Systems magazine is planning to have a special issue on data mining in late 1999, in conjunction with a special track on data mining of IEEE Concurrency magazine to appear concurrently. Extracting and abstracting useful information from massive data is becoming increasingly important in many commercial and scientific domains. The process of data mining includes generating predictive models, clustering or segmenting database events into coherent groups, finding patterns, anomalities and trends, and other abstractions. The special issue will feature papers on data mining techniques with emphasis on practical usefulness, scalability, and capability to handle noisy data. Intelligent Systems will focus on machine learning applications while IEEE Concurrency will focus on systems issues. Intelligent Systems solicits papers on real applications based on data mining techniques: Bayesian Nets, Neural Nets, trees/rules, probablistic modelling, text mining, association rules, ILP, clustering and others. The domain of application can be scientific, business, or industry. Submitted papers will be coordinated with IEEE Concurrency and may be referred to each other as appropriate.
