THEME: FROM BIG DATA AND BIG INFORMATION TO BIG KNOWLEDGE

TOPICS OF INTEREST

• From big data and big information to big knowledge (e.g., knowledge base construction, data lakes, large-scale analytics)
• Data and information acquisition and preprocessing (e.g., data crawling, data quality, data privacy, data wrangling)
• Integration and aggregation (e.g., semantic processing, data provenance, data linkage, data fusion, data warehousing, privacy and security, modelling)
• Infrastructures (e.g., cloud computing, data intensive computing, database systems, indexing and compression, search engine architectures)
• Special data processing (e.g., multilingual text, sequential, stream, spatio-temporal, graph, multimedia, scientific, and social media data)
• Integration of knowledge structures (e.g., natural language processing, speech recognition, computer vision, exploiting external sources, knowledge graphs)
• Analysis (e.g., OLAP, data mining, machine learning and AI, scalable analysis algorithms, event detection and tracking, deep neural networks, deep learning)
• Information access and retrieval (e.g., ad hoc and web search, question answering and dialogue systems, retrieval models, query processing, personalization, recommender and filtering systems)
• Data presentation (e.g., visualization, summarization, readability, understandability, VR, speech output)
• Users and interfaces for information and data systems (e.g., user behavior analysis, user interface design, personalization, interactive analysis, mobile computing, spoken interfaces)
• Crowd sourcing and exploitation of online resources
• Evaluation (e.g., online and offline evaluation, study of best practices)
• Applications (e.g., urban systems, biomedical and health informatics, security, business intelligence, crisis informatics, computational social science, data-enabled discovery, social media, recall-oriented search)
