Ubiquitous Data Mining (UDM) Workshop
Montpellier, France, August 27-31, 2012

in conjunction with

ECAI 2012
20th European Conference on Artificial Intelligence
Montpellier, France, August 27-31, 2012

== Call for Papers ==

Ubiquitous Data Mining (UDM) uses Data Mining techniques to extract
useful knowledge from data, namely when its characteristics reflect a
World in Movement.

The goal of this workshop is to convene researchers (from both academia
and industry) who deal with techniques such as: decision rules, decision
trees, association rules, clustering, filtering, learning classifier
systems, neural networks, support vector machines, preprocessing,
postprocessing, feature selection, visualization techniques, etc. for
UDM of distributed and heterogeneous sources in the form of a continuous
stream with mobile and/or embedded devices and related themes.

Authors are invited to submit original papers in all topics related to
Ubiquitous Data Mining. Selected papers will have to be presented during
the workshop.

The workshop will include extra time for audience discussion of the
presentation allowing the group to have a better understanding of the
issues, challenges, and ideas being presented.

Authors of best workshop papers will be invited to submit extended versions of their work to Intelligent Data Analysis Journal.
