Workshop Topics
Possible topics of the workshop include (but are not limited to):
* Social network analysis
* Bibliometrics
* Community discovery
* Personalization for search and for social interaction
* Recommender systems
* Web mining algorithms
* Applications of social network analysis
* Mining (Collaborative) Tagging Systems (blogs, wikis, etc.)
* Mining social data for multimedia information retrieval
* Opinion mining
This year's discovery challenge presents two tasks in the new area
of social bookmarking. One task covers spam detection and
the other covers tag recommendations. As we are hosting the social bookmark and
publication sharing system BibSonomy, we are able to provide a dataset
of BibSonomy for the challenge. A training dataset for both tasks is provided at the beginning of the competition.
The test dataset will be released 48 hours before the final deadline. Due to a very tight schedule we cannot grant any deadline
extension.
The presentation of the results will take place at the ECML/PKDD workshop where the top teams are
invited to present their approaches and results.
