CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

3rd EUROPEAN CONFERENCE
ON PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF KNOWLEDGE DISCOVERY IN DATABASES
September 15-18, 1999, Prague, Czech Republic 

ABOUT PKDD'99
Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) have emerged
from a combination of many research areas: databases, statistics,
machine learning, automated scientific discovery, inductive logic
programming, artificial intelligence, visualization, decision science
and high performance computing. While each of these areas can
contribute in specific ways, KDD focuses on the value that is added
by creative combination of the contributing areas. The goal of
PKDD'99 is to provide a European-based forum for interaction among
all theoreticians and practitioners interested in data mining.
Interdisciplinary collaboration is one desired outcome, but the
main long-term focus is on theoretical principles for the emerging
discipline of KDD and on practical applications of discovery systems
that are built on those principles. 

PKDD TOPICS OF INTEREST
Both theoretical and applied contributions are sought. Of particular
interest is integration of ideas from different areas contributing to
KDD and elaboration of principles specific to KDD. The following list
exemplifies topics of interest:
- Data and knowledge representation for data mining

- Statistics and probability in data mining
- Logic-based perspective on data mining
- Data warehousing and knowledge discovery
- Man-Machine interaction in data mining
- Artificial Intelligence contributions to KDD
- High performance computing for data mining
- Machine learning and automated scientific discovery
- Quality assessment of data mining results
- Applications of data mining and knowledge discovery
- KDD process

PROGRAM
About 80 both theoretical and applied papers covering all topics
of interest will be presented. The number of submitted papers grew
by 45% in comparison with PKDD '98  conference. 
The conference program will include:
* invited talks by KDD leaders and experts in the areas critical
  to the growth of KDD,
* oral and poster presentations of innovative research papers (list
  of them is given below),
* discovery systems demonstrations and hands-on experience in
  KDD applications,
* tutorials that provide quick and well-organized introduction
  to KDD and various application areas (list of them is given below),
* special sessions to present and discuss the results of Discovery 
  Challenge: exploration of several data bases available in advance
  to all conference participants.
