International MultiConference of Engineers and Computer Scientists 2006

Hong Kong, 20-22 June, 2006

 

The 2006 IAENG International Workshop on Data Mining and Applications (IWDMA'06)

 

The IWDMA'06 workshop is held as part of the International MultiConference of Engineers and Computer Scientists 2006. The IMECS 2006 is organized by the International Association of Engineers (IAENG), and serves as good platforms for the engineering community members to meet with each other and to exchange ideas. Extended version of the papers under this workshop can be included in the special issue of our journal Engineering Letters. And, further extended version can also be included in a book called "Current Trends in Data Mining and Applications" to be published by IAENG.

Data mining is also known as knowledge-discovery in databases (KDD). It is the practice of automatically searching large stores of data for patterns. To do this, data mining uses computational techniques from statistics and pattern recognition.

 

The topics of the workshop include, but not limited to, the following:

Soft Computing Data Mining Tools:
Artificial intelligence
Artificial neural network
Fuzzy logic
Automatic Learning Data Mining Tools:
Machine learning
Nearest neighbor (pattern recognition)
Pattern recognition

Statistical Data Mining Tools:
Hypothesis testing
Linear discriminant analysis
Logistic regression
Principal components analysis
Regression analysis

  Data Mining Applications:
Business intelligence
Business performance management
Database
Data stream mining
Data warehouse
Decision tree
Descriptive statistics
Document warehouse
Relational data mining
Text mining
