====== KDD2010 Workshops ======
**
Workshop Proposal Due: February 1, 2010**

KDD-2010 The Sixteenth ACM SIGKDD International Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining ([[http://www.kdd.org/kdd2010/|KDD-2010]]), July 25-28, 2010, Washington D.C., USA

===== Workshop Co-Chairs =====
  * [[http://www.cse.cuhk.edu.hk/~king|Irwin King]], The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong
  * [[http://www.gabormelli.com/|Gabor Melli]], Predictionworks, Vancouver, Canada

===== Introduction =====

The ACM KDD-2010 organizing committee invites proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with the conference.  The purpose of a workshop is to provide participants with the opportunity to present and discuss novel research ideas on active and emerging topics of knowledge discovery and data mining.  A workshop should also support the interaction and feedback among topic specialists from academia, industry and government. A WORKSHOP MAY BE ORGANIZED AROUND INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS IN A PARTICULAR DOMAIN AND THE CHALLENGES THIS DOMAIN POSES (SUCH AS THE NETFLIX WORKSHOP FOR RECOMMENDATION SYSTEMS)

Workshops that include a challenge problem, such as the one on time series classification that took place in 2007, are encouraged.  A session with papers that address a challenge complements the more diverse sessions with regular papers and improves the potential for discussion. Because such challenges require extra time to plan, we may be willing to provide early notice of acceptance.

The organizers of approved workshops are required to announce the workshop and call for papers, gather submissions, conduct the reviewing process and decide upon the final workshop program. They must also prepare an informal set of workshop proceedings to be distributed with the registration materials at the conference. They may choose to form organizing or program committees for assistance in these tasks. The logistics of the workshops will be done with the help from the ACM KDD-2010 organizers.
