    On-line, interconnected systems offer unprecedented opportunities for
    discovery and learning from the wealth of accompanying data.
    Extracting useful knowledge from such data is becoming more difficult,
    as volume and complexity push traditional techniques beyond their
    limits. Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (KDD) techniques automate
    the process of extracting knowledge from data. The annual ACM SIGKDD
    conference brings together researchers and practitioners focusing on
    new developments and challenges in KDD brought about by this data
    explosion.

    Suggested Paper Topics include (but are not limited to):

    Methods and Algorithms: data mining, web mining, text mining, mining
    time-series data, mining mixed-type data, mining high-dimensional
    data, incorporating domain knowledge, open-ended discovery, scalable
    algorithms, statistical methods, unconventional knowledge
    representations.

    The KDD Process: process modeling, process automation, data cleaning,
    human involvement, visualization, interactive exploration,
    interestingness, evaluating knowledge and discoveries.

    Integrated Systems: embedded KDD techniques, unification of mining
    with database architectures, integration of data
    mining/warehousing/OLAP, exploration and discovery systems.

    Applications and Experiences: e-commerce, privacy issues,
    personalization, activity monitoring, scientific applications,
    benchmarks, new application areas, tools, commercial successes or
    failures.

    Paper Submission

    Papers should describe original work that has not appeared and is not
    under review elsewhere (specialized workshops excluded). Both basic
    and applied research papers are solicited, as well as papers
    describing applications making significant research
    contributions. Paper length should be a maximum of 20 pages, using
    12pt. font, 1.5 line spacing, and 1in. margins. We strongly encourage
    electronic submission of papers. An electronic abstract of at most
    250 words must be submitted by Feb 26, 2001.

    See http://www.acm.org/sigkdd/kdd2001/IT/FAQ.html for guidance on
    whether to submit a paper to the research or industrial track.
