Dear Colleague Let me call for papers for the third workshop of MoDAT, in IEEE International Conference on Data Mining.
[Title of the workshop] "MoDAT 2015 : Designing Safe and Secure Life on the Market of Data - Exchanging and Integrating Data via Insightful Communications -" [Details including information for submission] See http://www.panda.sys.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/MoDAT/2015.html [Important Dates] > July 20, 2015: Deadline for submission > September 1, 2015: Notification of paper acceptance to authors > November 13th, workshop in conjunction with IEEE ICDM 2015, Atlantic City, USA [Scope] Since ICDM2013, MoDAT is a workshop to discuss how to design the Market of Data. In this market, data are reasonably dealt with - opened free, sold for suitable prices, or exchanged/shared based on negotiation. In the negotiation, people are expected to discuss use-scenarios of data until they learn the value of data and feel free to share/exchange data with each other without fearing loss of business opportunities. In MoDAT workshops so far, participants discussed from aspects of data links, Web mining, creative communication, etc. As a result, methods born or bred in the MoDAT2013 and MoDAT2014 came to be applied for governmental and industrial activities toward data driven innovations and educations. This year, we focus on designing the environment for safe and secure human life, by using/reusing/integrating data in domains such as health care, transportation, crimes, information security, life log, communication in SNS etc. [Relevant topics (include, not restricted to)] > Data/Text mining and visualization: visualization of links among data, > representing the possibility to combine data, etc. > Communication, education, and innovation: methods to foster experts, users, > and analysts of data to externalize use-scenarios and latent values of data. > Knowledge representation: ontologies of variables in data about safety and > security, for linking datasets from different domains. Hierarchical > structures of relevance among disastrous events, links between such events > and human actions would be also discussed. > Safety and/or Security: technologies and sciences relevant to such as domains > as medical science, nursing, transportation engineering, marketing, network > security, politics, etc. Interests in these topics may co-exist in one submission. For example, visualization may be used to foster innovative communications, and to support thoughts of data scientists. In the last item, we love to involve experts of security or safety, who may be unfamiliar with data mining. Such participants may play important roles in the gaming session of Innovators Marketplace on Data Jackets, that is a simulated MoDAT game where social requirements meet created technical solutions. [Past Record] We initiated MoDAT workshop since 2013, in ICDM2013. According to the workshop committee in ICDM2013, MoDAT has (not formally awarded but) got reported to the steering committee as the best of all 17 workshops in the conference.
