Management and mining Of UNcertain Data (MOUND 2010) 2nd Call For Papers

MOUND2010 Deadline in 3 Weeks -- no abstract registration required. Second Call for Papers The 2nd Workshop on Management and mining Of UNcertain Data (MOUND 2010) In conjunction with ICDE 2010, March 1st 2010, Long Beach, CA USA http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/~mound10/ Recently, uncertain data management and mining has become a critical issue in many real applications, such as sensor data monitoring, location-based services, object identification, and moving object search. Unlike exact data, uncertain data are often represented as a set of discrete samples or a probability density function, which presents new challenges for analyzing, querying, and mining the uncertain data effectively and efficiently. Following the success of the First International workshop on Management and mining Of UNcertain Data (MOUND) 2009, the Second MOUND 2010 will continue to investigate key issues related to the data management and mining over uncertain data. Specifically, this forum welcomes contributions that explore uncertain data management issues such as data representation, various types of queries, and indexes. Additionally, the workshop hopes to attract work that studies the new data mining techniques of data cleaning, clustering, and classification ove! r uncertain data including sensor data, location data, web and multimedia data. Submissions High quality research papers in the relevant areas are solicited. Original papers exploring new directions will receive especially careful consideration. Papers that have already been accepted or are currently under review for other conferences or journals will not be considered for MOUND10. Paper submissions should be limited to a maximum of 8 pages in the camera-ready format of ICDE10. All papers will be reviewed by the Program Committee on the basis of technical quality, relevance to data mining, originality, significance, and clarity. All accepted workshop papers will be included in a proceeding published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. Please submit your papers using the following submission site: https://cmt.research.microsoft.com/MOUND2010 For any questions, please email the program chairs: shenht@itee.uq.edu.au or graham@research.att.com.
