Overview
Data
mining and knowledge discovery can be considered today as mature
research fields with numerous algorithms and studies to extract
knowledge from data in different forms. Although, most existing data
mining approaches look for patterns in tabular data, there are also
numerous studies which already look for patterns in complex data (e.g.
multi-table data, XML data, web data, time series and sequences, graphs
and trees).
The
recent developments in technologies and life sciences have paved the
way to the proliferation of data collections representing new complex
interactions between entities in distributed and heterogeneous sources.
These interactions may be spanned at multiple levels of granularity as
well as at spatial and temporal dimensions.
The
purpose of this workshop is to bring together researchers and
practitioners of data mining interested in exploring emerging
technologies and applications where complex patterns in expressive
languages are principally extracted from new prominent data sources
like blogs, event or log data, biological data, spatio-temporal data,
social networks, mobility data, sensor data and streams, and so on. We
are interested in advanced techniques which preserve the informative
richness of data and allow us to efficiently and efficaciously identify
complex information units present in such data.
