DMCS has been running since 2005 at leading data mining conferences. DMCS endeavors to encourage the publication of outstanding practical implementations of data mining.

 

 

Invited Speakers 

 

This year's workshop features special guest talks from some of the leading data miners in the field:  

 

Geoff Webb, who was last year's General Chair of IEEE ICDM 2012, will be giving his subjective take on the field of Association Rule Mining, and will be addressing how they can be used for practical applications.

 

 

Gabor Melliwho received this year’s ACM SIGKDD Service Award, will be discussing his work on text understanding and link injection with San Francisco startup company VigLink.

 

 

Brian Burdick, former CTO of several startup companies including SpecificMedia, will be taking an expansive look at the future of advertising, and discuss grand challenges for advertising. He has also promised to say politically incorrect things about Hadoop (smile).

 

Wei Ding will also be giving us a talk on data mining applications for NASA and Department of Energy.

 

 

 

Technical Program

 

DMCS' technical program will highlight new applications from outstanding practitioners. Top presenters from France, Italy, US, UK, Australia and Turkey will be converging on ICDM 2013 to discuss their real-world applications. Practical Applications discussed range from Social Network Advertising to Bot Detection, Code-breaking, Bank Fraud detection, and Elite Athlete Training. Prepare for a fascianting program with people who are changing the world.
