[CALL FOR PAPERS]
KES2005 (http://www.latrobe.edu.au/kes/)
invited session on Chance Discovery
(http://ultimaVI.arc.net.my/ave/KES2005/)
someday during 14, 15 & 16 September 2005
Hilton On The Park Melbourne
192 Wellington Parade, East Melbourne 3002, Australia
Session Themes: [Chance Discovery: How to discover and evaluate chance?
Also, how to show the chance? ]
Since our meetings in 2000,
chance discovery has been defined as the discovery of chance,
rather than discovery
by chance. A ``chance" here means a new event/situation that can be
conceived either as an opportunity or as a risk in the future.
The ``discovery" of chances is of crucial importance since it may
have a significant impact on human decision making. Desirable effects
of opportunities should be actively promoted, whereas preventive
measures should be taken in the case of discovered risks.
In other words, Chance Discovery aims to provide means for inventing
or surviving the future, rather than simply predicting the future.
This session will discuss several problems in Chance Discovery. As
shown above, Chance Discovery is a research to study how to discover
rare or novel events causing potentially significant situation. Although
the event itself could not be significant.
Indeed, some data mining techniques can be applied to Chance
Discovery. However, they are not sufficient. Since, usually,
conventional data mining shows average events. Our main target is to
study how to discover rare or novel events. They are not average
matters but exceptions.
This session intends to discuss how to discover and suggest events
causing significant but hidden events.
In fact, we will deal with events in the real world, therefore, we
need to have knowledge about movement in society, behaviour of people,
as well as computational methods.
In addition, we would like to discuss an evaluation and selection of
chance. In fact, chance will be suggested to the users, but the next
problem is how to evaluate and select proper chance. Furthermore,
more important thing is how to effectively show chance to the users.
Thus,
we would like to discuss from computational, cognitive, sociological,
economical and psychological viewpoints. Of course, other viewpoints
are welcome!
Topics to be discussed (will not be restricted to):
* Analysis of human behaviour.
* Analysis of complex systems (society, community etc.).
* Applications of Chance Discovery.
* Characterization of ``Chance.''
* Logical foundations for Chance Discovery.
* Theories and methodologies to discover rare or novel events.
* Theories and methodologies to foretell next trends.
* Theories and methodologies to make aware of significant events.
* Theories and methodologies for an evaluation and selection of chance.
* Models and methodologies for effective suggestion of chance.
