1st International Workshop "EVENTS 2010 - Recognising and tracking events on the Web and in real life" Hosted by: The 6th Hellenic Conference on Artificial Intelligence (SETN 2010) Athens, Greece, May 4, 2010 http://mklab.iti.gr/events2010
Users and organizations collect data in various structured and unstructured digital formats, but they cannot fully utilize these data to support content and resource management process. It is evident that the analysis and interpretation of the available data needs to be automated, in order for large data volumes to be transformed into operational knowledge. Events are particularly important pieces of knowledge, as they represent activities of special significance both for users and organisations. Therefore, the recognition of events is of outmost importance. Consider, for example, automatic event (e.g. emergencies) and trend detection by analysing users contributions to social Web 2.0 applications, the recognition of attacks on nodes of a computer network given the exchanged TCP/IP messages, the recognition of suspicious trader behaviour given the transactions in a financial market, and the recognition of various types of cardiac arrhythmia given electrocardiographs. We welcome papers focusing on various aspects of event recognition, including analysis of video, audio, text and other sensor data, as well as recognition on fused data sources and temporal reasoning systems. While the workshop places emphasis on theoretical contributions, we also welcome papers describing interesting applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Representation languages for event recognition * Algorithms for real-time event recognition * Probabilistic reasoning for event recognition * Machine learning for event recognition * Event-driven architectures * Benchmarks, performance evaluations, and testbeds * Domain-specific deployments of event-based systems * Multimedia and social content analysis for event detection * Clustering, concept detection and multi-modal/fusion techniques * Retrieval of events * User interaction and interfaces for events navigation, browsing and management Important Dates * Submission of papers: March 12, 2010 * Notification of acceptance: April 10, 2010 * Submission of camera-ready papers: April 24, 2010 * Workshop: 4 May 2010 Submissions We welcome submissions of up to 15 pages in length. Submissions should be formatted in Springer LNCS format (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html) and submitted through https://www.easychair.org/login.cgi?conf=events20100 Easychair Submission Site. Publisher for proceedings and journal for a special issue with selected papers will be announced soon. Organizing Committee Thomas Winkler, Fraunhofer IAIS, Germany.
