Workshop on Data Engineering for Inductive Learning

[Peter Turney]

	Workshop on Data Engineering for Inductive Learning

	Second and Final Call for Participation

	IJCAI-95, Montreal (Canada), August 20, 1995


This notice is to inform you that the date of the workshop has
been determined and to remind you of the approaching deadline
for submissions (including requests for participation without
a paper presentation).

In inductive learning, algorithms are applied to data. It is
well-understood that attention to both elements is critical, but
algorithms typically receive more attention than data.  Our goal in
this workshop is to counterbalance the predominant focus on algorithms
by providing a forum in which data takes center stage.  Specifically,
we invite discussion of issues relevant to data engineering, which we
define as the transformation of raw data into a form useful as input to
algorithms for inductive learning. Data engineering is a concern in
industrial and commercial applications of machine learning, neural
networks, genetic algorithms, and traditional statistics.

Deadline for submissions:               March 31, 1995
Notification of acceptance:             April 21, 1995
Submissions available by ftp:           April 28, 1995
Actual Workshop:                        August 20, 1995
