Dear Data Miners and Scientists:
We are proud to bring to you the 7th ICDM, the 5th MLDM and the highly intellectual Workshops and Tutorials session. Most of the conferences range from being highly academic, without any relevance to real live issues, to highly sales oriented where software and consulting companies are providing already known content in a very entertaining way. We are, however, proud that the ICDM and MLDM are recognized as being among the few leading conferences in the field of data mining. These conferences have a clear applied profile and we stay relevant without loosing touch with the latest results and ideas fresh out of the universities and research institutes. Time is valuable and so is the information that you, your colleagues, managers, and decision-maker may be researching for. Therefore, we have compiled a new, one of a kind compact publication on this jointly organized conference the Conference Summary . This new publication line, beginning with the ICDM and MLDM conference, will provide and overview of the themes and major results of the conference sessions, workshops and the poster session. Short curriculum vitae of the speakers are included as well and should give an overview to you of Who is Who in data mining. Hence you will stand to benefit from this publication especially after the conference is over, when some better ideas and questions start popping into the head and the publication is in hand for a quick, easy and qualified reference. This is also an opportunity for you to build and keep up your network especially with those in the same field of interest.
Kind regards,
Andrea Ahlemeyer-Stubbe
