CFP - Research Track of Southern Data Science Conference 2018

[Southern Data Science Conference]

The organizing committee of the 2018 Southern Data Science Conference is pleased to invite you to submit a proposal to present a poster in the Research Track which is sponsored by the National Consortium for Data Science (NCDS) in Atlanta, GA. The conference is scheduled for April 13 and 14th 2018. Poster presenters will be required to attend the Poster Session at a specified time to discuss the work with conference attendees. The topics for the poster session encompass all of data science, including but not limited to:

 

1. Data Extraction

   1. Feature extraction and preprocessing

   2. Text mining

   3. Pattern recognition

2. Machine learning

   1. Supervised and unsupervised learning

   2. Deep learning and neural networks

   3. Model evaluation and interpretation

3. Privacy/Security

   1. Cyberinfrastructure and secure computing

   2. Privacy-preserving analytics

   3. Security/Privacy challenges and potential solutions

4. Applications

   1. Case study of the application of a technique to solve a problem

   2. Lessons learned for a domain-specific application

   3. Works in progress

 

The poster session is similar to a storyboard, using a combination of graphics and text to tell a story about a specific data science question and inform the attendees of the work. The poster session allows the presenter to interact with interested parties in a casual setting to share information and ideas.

 

Selected poster presenters will receive:

1. Professional visibility.

2. Access to industry practitioners and experts in the area for either recruitment or collaboration.

3. FREE conference admission.

 

Up to 500-word abstracts are due by January 26, 2018 to be considered. Authors of selected submissions will be notified by February 26, 2018.
