Research Papers:
Prospective authors are encouraged to submit research papers on any
topics of relevance to knowledge discovery and data mining. In
addition to fundamental research, we solicit papers fostering
cross-fertilization and interdisciplinary integration, as well as
papers that describe significant experiences and implementation
lessons.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
KDD Techniques: Mining Enterprise Databases:
--------------------------- -----------------------------------
New KDD algorithms Scalable algorithms
Mining the Web Data cleaning/noisy data
Mining text/multimedia data Unification of mining with querying
Incremental algorithms Database architectures for KDD
High-dimensional data Database primitives for KDD
Background knowledge Distributed architectures for KDD
Combining multiple models Integration: mining/warehouse/OLAP
Implementation and Applications: Human Interaction and the KDD
Process
-------------------------------- ------------------------------------
Implementation & use of KDD Data and knowledge visualization,
systems and visualization of large, high-
Data mining and e-commerce dimensional data
Data mining and privacy issues Evaluating knowledge and potential
Vertical applications discoveries
Case studies: success/failure Interactive exploration
Benchmarks
How to Submit Research Papers:
Electronic Abstract: By Feb 29, 2000, authors must electronically
submit an abstract containing:
the title of the paper
the subject areas of the paper
the names of the authors
an abstract of at most 250 words
Hard Copy of Full Paper: By March 3, 2000, authors must submit six
hardcopies of their research paper, which should:
be a maximum of 20 pages, not counting the title page
have a line spacing of 1.5
use no smaller than a 12pt font
have at least a 1 inch margin on each side
Electronic Submission of Full Paper: Authors may choose to submit the
full research paper electronically instead of submitting hard copy
versions. Electronic submission of papers will begin Feb 29th 1pm PST
and end on March 3rd. To submit an electronic version of the full
paper authors must:
(1) Submit an Electronic Abstract by Feb 28th
(2) Submit the full paper in Word 95/97, PDF or PostScript
format. Word and PDF are the preferred formats, but PostScript
will be accepted. It is the absolute responsibility of the
authors to ensure that the submitted papers will print easily
using a variety of printers. The paper will be rejected if that
is not the case. All PostScript submissions need to be
uncompressed and printable by both Windows and Unix machines
(3) Include their Paper ID (assigned during abstract
submission) and email address
Note: You must electronically submit an abstract for a paper to be
considered. The address to mail the hardcopies will appear on the
electronic submission confirmation page and will also be emailed to
the author who submits the abstract. The contact author's address,
telephone number, email address and PaperID (which will be assigned by
the electronic submission system) should appear on the title page of
the submission. If you submit your full research paper in hard copy
format, you will receive an email confirmation by March 10th. If you
submit your full research paper electronically, you will receive an
email confirmation within 24 hours of your submission. Overlength or
late papers will be rejected without review.
All authors of accepted papers will be required to sign copyright
release forms, and one author of each accepted paper will be expected
to present the paper at the conference. Questions regarding research
papers may be directed to program committee chairs: Raghu Ramakrishnan
and Sal Stolfo at [log in to unmask]
Awards:
Best Paper Awards: The KDD-2000 Best Papers Awards recognize the best
paper in two categories: fundamental research and applications/applied
research. Fundamental research papers are judged by the significance
and originality of their contribution. Application/applied research
papers are judged by the practical impact and current or potential
usefulness of the work. In both categories, the clarity and quality
of presentation are also considered.
Student Travel Awards: SIGKDD, AAAI, SIGMOD and SIGART are sponsoring
student travel awards to KDD-2000, August 20-23, 2000, Boston, MA.
Detailed information will be made available at
