IEEE International Conference on Data Mining
MoDAT : Designing the Market of Data - for Synthesizing Data in Sciences and Businesses
We are a merged workshop of MoDAT as it was (which had 15 submissions... thank you!), and The 1st International Workshop on Mining Social Data at Work (1st MSDW), expecting a synergistic effect enhancing our creativity.
December 7th(changed from 8th), in conjunction with
IEEE ICDM 2013 in Dallas, Texas.

www.KDnuggets.com - Analytics, Big, Data, Data Mining, and Data Science Resources,
DBWorld, and relevant societies
- Deadline for submissions: August 3, 2013: Strict: No reasons for delay can be considered
- Accepted papers will be published in a formal proceedings by the IEEE Computer Society Press
Scope
This workshop is not about data mining for marketing, but about how to create and design the market where data are reasonably dealt with,
i.e., sold, opened free, or shared after negotiation. Our ultimate goal is to have each people on the earth feel free to share one's own data
with others without fearing of the loss of business opportunities.
In order to make a social environment where analysts and decision
makers in active businesses and sciences can be provided with data they
need, in this workshop we aim to (re)design an environment called the
Market of Data, where each user or provider of data can understand the
value of each part of data so that one can buy/sell it for a reasonable
price. Here, the value of each part of data shall be visualized to aid
users' considering its possible contribution to promoting/creating
businesses and scientific findings.
Furthermore, it is noteworthy that data scientists need to import
techniques from others, but the techniques are not easy to learn from
experts dealing with different kinds of data, because the similarity
between data is not always obvious. The similarity between latent
dynamics behind data is also desired to be represented in such a way as
visualizing distances among structural features of data for aiding the
choice of success/failure cases of data mining to learn from.
Relevant Areas
In this workshop we call for presentations about what we can/should
do for creating a marketplace where data and analystsf knowledge are
shared by selling and buying, with reasonably determining the conditions
for sharing. Or, people in the market may communicate to decide to
expose the data as open-source, if the trust of the data provider is
expected to be elevated highly due to the contribution to people in the
public. Thus the Market of Data (MODAT) means a place where the value of
data and knowledge can be externalized. Relevant areas are as follows,
but not restricted to:
|
|
- Data/Text mining and visualization
- Visualization of links among data, representing the possibility to combine them to discuss use scenarios of data
- Visualization of links and distances among data, representing their similarities
- Mining data or text for finding important events and attributes, in order to compute the links and distances
- Extracting causalities, for externalizing links among data
- Knowledge representation
- Construction of dictionaries of variables, for reasonably linking among data
- Representing the hierarchical structure of relevance among concepts and variables, used in the thoughts of analysts and users
- Methods for creative communication and argumentation
- Data-based communication for evaluating the value of an event, i.e., chance discovery, and data which may include such an event
- Visual interface for triggering meaningful thoughts of stakeholders
We also love to involve ones beyond the community of data mining ?
sociologists, stock dealers, biologists, ..anyone from active
communities are in MoDAT. Forming the interdisciplinary community, we
will conduct a session of Innovators MarketplaceR where ideas to combine
existing technologies and knowledge are reflected to the design of Data
Market.
