INNS 2015 Special Session
2015 INNS BDC Special Session on Scalable Machine Learning
August 8th-10th 2015
San Fransico, USA

--- Aims ----
In many fields, such as multimedia, insurance information systems, bio-bioinformatics, and with advances in data collection and storage technologies have allowed companies to accumulate and to acquire vast amounts of data (Terabyte, Petabyte, and sometimes Zettabyte). In many cases the data may arrive very rapidly in streaming. A data stream is often presented as an ordered sequence of data that in many applications can be read only once or a small number of times using limited computing and storage capabilities. Recent trends in hardware have brought new challenges to the programming and machine learning community and multi-core systems. Data explosion involves that machine learning algorithms are adapted using the new parallelism paradigm as “MapReduce”. Somme researches have proposed incremental, collaborative and online learning methods making it possible to deal with massive data (big data). This, requires a process capable of dealing data continuously with restrictions of memory and time.

This special session offers a meeting opportunity for academic and industry researchers in the fields of machine learning, neural network, data visualization, and Big Data to discuss new areas of learning methods and experimental design. We encourage researchers and practitioners to submit papers describing original research addressing data stream and scalable machine learning challenges.
