[ please distribute - apologies for multiple postings ] ****************************************************************************** THE THIRD INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON LEARNING AND DATA SCIENCES (SLDS 2015) April 20-22, 2015 Royal Holloway, University of London, UK http://www.clrc.rhul.ac.uk/slds2015/ ****************************************************************************** AIMS Great progress has been made in the past 20 years in Machine Learning and Statistical Learning, Data Analysis and Data Mining. From the statistical analysis of data to data mining, from machine learning to knowledge discovery, the development of data exploration and modelling has overcome numerous challenges and has benefited greatly from varied, often overlapping, paradigms. By uniting specialists with different expertise and from different disciplines, the objectives of this conference are to compare approaches to data, to deepen understanding of different methodologies, and to focus on the Grand Challenges that must be addressed in the coming years. The 3rd Symposium builds on the core contributions to Data Science made by SLDS 2009 and SLDS 2012. The 3rd Symposium focuses on contemporary and theoretical problems as well as on efficient practical solutions for applied domains which involve Data Analysis, Data Mining, Machine Learning and Statistical Learning contributions. This Symposium is important for researchers and all who want to keep abreast of developments in data handling and of the consequent results that can be imagined in various applied domains. SCOPE: The focus of the Symposium includes, but is not limited to, the following themes: - Machine Learning Algorithms with Performance Guarantees - Conformal Predictors - Prediction with Expert Advice - Bayesian Belief Networks - Statistical Learning - Machine Learning for Big Data - Data Science - Complex/Symbolic Data Analysis - Visualisation and Verbalisation of Data - Deep Learning and Semi-Supervised Learning - Data Mining and Cluster Analysis - Knowledge Discovery by Modelling Applications and Challenges: - Mining and Learning for Neuroscience - Mining and Learning for Omics - Text Mining and Social Networks - Textual Analysis and Analysis of Semantics - Aspects of Knowledge Structures - Computational Finance - Geometric Data Analysis - Open Linked Data - Smart Cities - Forensics and Security - Ethics of Big Data IMPORTANT DATES: - Paper Submission Deadline: November 7th, 2014 - Author Notifications: December 19th, 2015 - Camera-ready Submission Deadline: January 16, 2015 - Early Registration Deadline: January 16th, 2015 - Conference Dates: April 20-22, 2015 KEYNOTE SPEAKER: Prof. Vladimir Vapnik NEC, USA and Royal Holloway, University of London, UK SUBMISSIONS: Prospective authors are invited to submit their papers by uploading them for the evaluation web site at: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=slds2015 Submissions must be uploaded by November 7, 2014 and must be in PDF format no longer than 10 pages including all figures, tables, and references single space, font size of 12.
