IEEE International Conference on Data Mining

MoDAT : Designing Safe and Secure Life on the Market of Data - Exchanging and Integrating Data via Insightful Communications -

November 14th, in conjunction with IEEE ICDM 2015, Atlantic City, USA


Deadline for submissions:July 20, 2015 (very strict - this is the first and the very final extension)

Scope

Return to the MoDAT series

[Scope]

Since ICDM2013, MoDAT is a workshop to discuss how to design the Market of Data. In this market, data are reasonably dealt with - opened free, sold for suitable prices, or exchanged/shared based on negotiation. In the negotiation, people are expected to discuss use-scenarios of data until they learn the value of data and feel free to share/exchange data with each other without fearing loss of business opportunities. In MoDAT workshops so far, participants discussed from aspects of data links, data/text/Web mining, creative communication, etc. As a result, methods born or bred in the MoDAT2013 and MoDAT2014 came to be applied for governmental and industrial activities toward data driven innovations and educations. This year we focus on the topic of planning safe and secure life of human(s), by using/reusing/integrating data in domains such as health care, transportation, crimes, information security, life log, communication in SNS etc.

[Relevant topics (include, not restricted to)]

Interests in these topics may co-exist in one submission. For example, visualization may be used to foster innovative communications, and to support thoughts of data scientists. In the last item, we love to involve experts of security or safety, who may be unfamiliar with data mining. Such participants will play an important role in the gaming session of Innovators Marketplace on Data Jackets, where social requirements and technical solutions meet, as an embodiment of innovative market of data.

Innovators Marketplace(R) on Data Jackets, an approach toward MoDAT, has been also introduced officially as the method for the exchange and integrated analysis of data in the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industries Data Exchange Consortium, used by more than 100 firms, as well as summer program in The University of Tokyo and the concluding session of MoDAT 2013 and 2014. The conclusion was to continute MoDAT!

Our Past Records

We initiated MoDAT workshop since 2013, in ICDM2013. According to the workshop committee in ICDM2013, MoDAT has got reported to the steering committee as the best of all 17 workshops in the conference. Also, MoDAT have been selected as one of the 9 full day workshops accepted among 30 proposals in ICDM2014. And, after the workshop in 2014, we went out to a restaurant outside for realizing a gaming session on IMDJ that we are planning again this year. So far we organized and are organizing workshops, about data-based approaches to businesses, such as,

That are all linked to MoDAT. Also we edited Special Issues as guest editors for international journals, mainly relevant to chance discovery. The journals were: International Journal of Knowledge and Systems Science (2013), International Journal of Organizational and Collective Intelligence (2011), International Journal of Advanced Intelligence Paradigms (2010), Information Sciences (2009), International Journal of Knowledge-based and Intelligent Engineering Systems (2007, 2008), New Mathematics and Natural Computation (2006), New Generation Computing (2003), and Journal of Contingencies and Crisis Management (2002). If we count events, special issues, and books organized or edited by other members (than Ohsawa) of the program committee of this proposal, the record will be too large to list up here.
