WORKSHOP
on DATA MINING FOR USER MODELING
Monday, 25 June 2007
NEW:
Schedule
This full-day workshop covers a variety of topics in data mining as it
relates to user modeling issues in ubiquitous computing and education,
and is composed of three sessions.
- The morning session is on Educational Data Mining
(see www.educationaldatamining.org/UM2007.html)
- A mid-day shared session on data mining for UM for
education in ubiquitous contexts. This will consist of an invited
talk by
Gord
McCalla:
The Ecological Approach: Using Patterns in Learner Behaviour to Inform
Pedagogical Goals
( abstract)
and (depending on the submissions) paper presentations.
- The afternoon session will be on Ubiquitous Knowledge
Discovery for User Modeling (see vasarely.wiwi.hu-berlin.de/K-DUUM07)
The workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from
a variety of backgrounds. We expect that participants will come
from a variety of research areas, including: user modelling, ubiquitous
computing, student modeling, personalization, Web mining, machine
learning, intelligent tutoring systems, and assessment.
We are considering both papers
describing original, unpublished
research (10 pages max) as well as position papers and work at the
formative stage (5 pages max). Submissions should use the same paper
format
as for the main conference, but with margins of: TOP and BOTTOM -
3cm;
LEFT and RIGHT - 3.5cm.
To do this, you can use
this cls file
(for an example of how to use this
in a Latex file, use llncs.dem from the
llncs2e.zip available from the Springer
Website, and replace llncs.cls by llncs_modified.cls).
Contributions should be emailed to dm.um07@googlemail.com.
Submissions should
indicate the target session (EDM, K-DUUM, or shared session).
Submissions will be reviewed by three reviewers.
