    Second Bar-Ilan Workshop on Knowledge Discovery and Learning

    May 31 - June 1, 2000

    Bar-Ilan University, Ramat-Gan, Israel
     
       CALL FOR PAPERS/PRESENTATIONS

    The Bar-Ilan Research Institute for Computer Science will sponsor a
    workshop on Knowledge Discovery and Learning to be held May 31 and June 1, 2000
    at the university. Submissions of short papers or presentations from academia
    and industry are solicited in this Call.

    Invited speakers (to date):

            Shai Ben David (Technion)
            Haym Hirsh (Rutgers University)
            Yishay Mansour (Tel Aviv University)
            Naftaly Tishby (Hebrew University)
            Gyury Turan (University of Illinois, Chicago and University of Szeged)

    Other participants to be announced.
       
    Knowledge discovery is a broad discipline that integrates methods
    from machine learning, statistics, databases, rule-based systems, and
    other areas. It includes algorithms for data selection, pattern
    discovery, clustering, managing uncertainty, and trend analysis.
    Computational learning theory is central to the underpinnings and
    advances of this area. This dual focus is the subject of this workshop.

    Submissions are invited for research papers and presentations.
    Topics to be covered include but are not limited to the following:
            Text Mining
            Pattern Matching for KDD
            Learning Theory
            Clustering
            Rule Extraction
            Algorithm Complexity and Lower Bounds
            Incremental Discovery Methods
            
    A short 1-3 page extended abstract should be sent to
    Prof. Martin Golumbic, (golumbic@cs.biu.ac.il) by April 30, 2000.
    Decisions for acceptance will be ongoing and usually within 2 weeks
    of the submission. An on-line proceedings of extended abstracts
    will be made available shortly before the workshop.
