part of the IADIS Multi Conference on Computer Science and Information
Systems (MCCSIS 2007)

Lisbon , Portugal, 3 to 8 July 2007

(http://www.mccsis.org )



*Keynote Speakers (confirmed)*

Professor Janusz Kacprzyk, Deputy Director for Scientific Affairs, Polish
Academy of Sciences, Poland

Professor Bogdan Gabrys, Computational Intelligence Research Group,
Bournemouth University, UK



*Conference background and goals*



The First European Conference on Data Mining (ECDM'07) is aimed to gather
researchers and application developers from a wide range of data mining
related areas such as statistics, computational intelligence, pattern
recognition, databases and visualization. ECDM'07 is aimed to advance the
state of the art in data mining field and its various real world
applications. ECDM'07 will provide opportunities for technical collaboration
among data mining and machine learning researchers around the globe. Main
tracks have been identified (see below). However innovative contributions
that do not fit into these areas will also be considered since they might be
of benefit to conference attendees.



*Format of the Conference *

* *

The conference will comprise of invited talks and oral presentations. The
proceedings of the conference will be published in the form of a book and
CD-ROM with ISBN, and will be available also in the IADIS Digital Library (

extended versions of their papers in the IADIS Journal on Computer Science
and Information Systems (ISSN: 1646-3692) and also in the following
Journals.

- International Journal of Computational Intelligence Research (special
issue on advances in data mining)

- Journal of Information Assurance and Security (special issue on data
mining and information security)
