ICDM 2017 Workshop on Data Driven Discovery of Models (D3M)

[Christophe Giraud-Carrier]

Data-driven Discovery of Models (D3M)

Held in conjunction with the IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (ICDM 2017) 

New Orleans, Louisiana, USA, 18 November 2017

Call for Papers

This workshop is about data-driven approaches to model discovery. These approaches aim at developing systems that enable users with subject matter expertise but no data science background to create empirical models of real, complex processes. As a result, 1) subject matter experts are empowered to create empirical models without the need for data scientists, and 2) expert data scientists experience increased productivity through automation.

Contributions describing work in progress as well as position papers are invited. All contributions must focus on data-driven approaches to the design and deployment of ML/DM models. Of particular interest are methods and proposals that address the following issues:

- Ensemble learning

- Learning with privileged information

- Learning with missing data

- Learning from heterogeneous data

- Metalearning

- Hyperparameter optimization

- Non-parametric, model-free, and zero-knowledge learning

- Non-parametric causal inference

- Spectral graph embedding and inference

- Automatic feature generation

- Weak supervision

- Workflows with multiple learning methods

- Planning and optimizing learning workflows

Presentations of beta versions of tools for automated or guided use of methods or algorithms with respect to performance or run stability are also welcome.

Papers must be formatted and written according to the Submission Guidelines on the ICDM 2017 conference web site at http://www.ucs.louisiana.edu/~sxk6389/index.html.

Papers must be submitted electronically via CyberChair at https://wi-lab.com/cyberchair/2017/icdm17/scripts/submit.php?subarea=SP21&undisplay_detail=1&wh=/cyberchair/2017/icdm17/scripts/ws_submit.php".

Submitted papers will be reviewed by at least two independent referees from the Program Committee.

Important Dates:

- Paper submission deadline: August 7th, 2017

- Paper notification: September 7th, 2017

- Camera-ready version of accepted papers: September 15th, 2017

- Workshop date: November 18th, 2017
