The phenomenal growth of the web has led to an ever-increasing
volume of data and information being published in web-accessible formats.
Research in web data mining aims to develop new techniques to
derive actionable knowledge and information from these
sources. Due to heterogeneity and lack of structure in web
data, automated discovery of targeted or unexpected knowledge is a
challenging task. It calls for novel methods that draw from a wide
range of fields such as data mining, machine learning, natural
language processing, statistics, databases, and information retrieval.
For the data mining track, we invite original and high quality
submissions addressing all aspects of web data mining. The relevant
topics include, but are not restricted to, the following:
- Novel classification or clustering methods for web data
- Mining web content and link structure
- Web log mining and web traffic analysis
- Building user profiles and providing recommendations
- Spatio-temporal analysis of blogs, reviews, and discussions
- Change detection and monitoring methods for web data
- Entity and relationship extraction and disambiguation
- Privacy issues in web mining
- Data integration and data cleaning
- Integrating linguistic and domain knowledge in web mining
Paper formatting requirements are provided on the
submissions page.
