[CFP] International Workshop on Social Networks and Social Media Mining on the Web
by Yoshinori Hijikata 22 Oct '09

22 Oct '09

日本データベース学会の皆様，大阪大学の土方です．この度，WI2研究会が共同主催で国際ワークショップ「Social Networks and Socia Media Mining on the Web (SNSMW 2010)」を開催することになりました． 2010年4月1日〜4日まで筑波で行われますDASFAA'2010の併設ワークショップとして行います．募集テーマは，まさにWI2研究会が扱う分野そのものとなります．ふるってご投稿ください． ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1st International Workshop on Social Networks and Social Media Mining on the Web in conjunction with DASFAA 2010 DASFAA2010, Tsukuba, Japan, April 1-4, 2010 http://www.nishilab.sys.es.osaka-u.ac.jp/SNSMW/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Workshop Description: Today the emergence of web-based communities and hosted services such as social networking sites, wikis and folksonomies, brings in tremendous freedom of Web autonomy and facilitate collaboration and knowledge sharing between users. Along with the interaction between users and computers, social media are rapidly becoming an important part of our digital experience, ranging from digital textual information to diverse multimedia forms. These aspects and characteristics constitute of the core of second generation of Web. A prominent challenge lies in modeling and mining this vast pool of data to extract, represent and exploit meaningful knowledge and to leverage structures and dynamics of emerging social networks residing in the social media. Social networks and social media mining combines data mining with social computing as a promising direction and offers unique opportunities for developing novel algorithms and tools ranging from text and content mining to link mining. The 1st International Workshop on Social Networks and Social Media Mining on the Web in conjunction with DASFAA 2010 will bring together the academia, researchers and industrial practitioners from computer science, information systems, statistics, sociology, behavior science and organization science discipline, and provide a forum for recent advances in the field of social networks and social media, from the perspectives of data management and mining. We solicit original and high quality submissions addressing all aspects of this field.
