Announcing
IDA 2007
The 7th International Symposium on Intelligent Data Analysis
Ljubljana, Slovenia
September 6-8, 2007
http://www.ida2007.org
IDA-2007 will take place in Ljubljana, Slovenia, September 6-8, 2007,
under the auspices of the IDA council. The conference is organized by
researchers and professors from the Universities of Ljubljana and
Konstanz (Germany). It will consist of a stimulating program of
invited talks by leading international experts in intelligent data
analysis, contributed papers, poster sessions, and an exciting social
program.
Our aim for IDA-2007 is to bring together a wide variety of
researchers - academic, industrial, and otherwise who are concerned
with extracting knowledge from data, including researchers from
statistics, machine learning, neural networks, computer science,
pattern recognition, database management, and other areas. The
strategies adopted by people working in these areas are often
different, and a synergy results if this is recognised. IDA-2007 is
intended to stimulate interaction between these different areas, so
that more powerful techniques and tools emerge for extracting
knowledge from data and a better understanding is developed for the
process of intelligent data analysis.
During the IDA-2007 conference we plan for an interesting agenda of
social events that include several tutorial tracks, open panel
discussions, and keynote talks.
Important Dates:
----------------
April 6, 2007 Deadline for submitting papers
May 18, 2007 Notification of acceptance
June 15, 2007 Deadline for submission of final papers
Sept 6-8, 2007: IDA 2007
Conference Venue:
-----------------
Ljubljana, the capital town of Slovenia, will be hosting IDA 2007 at
the University of Ljubljana. Ljubljana maintains the friendliness of a
small town and also has the flair and characteristics of a
metropolis. The busy city centre is the old part of the town rich with
medieval architecture. The river runs through the town, the river
banks boasting numerous Italian style cafés and plazas for guests to
enjoy. It is closer to more well-known cities than many people
think. It is easy to reach with direct flights leaving from Vienna,
Munich, Frankfurt, London and Paris. It is only a 2 hour drive from
Vienna or Munich. Venice is also only 2 hours away and the
Mediterranean coastline is within easy driving distance.

This is the seventh Symposium on Intelligent Data Analysis after the
successful symposia IDA-2005 (Madrid), IDA-2003 (Berlin), IDA-2001
(Lisboa), IDA-99 (Amsterdam), IDA-97 (London), and IDA-95
(Baden-Baden).
The IDA conference series intends to provide an international forum for
the
discussion of the innovative outstanding research results in the field
of intelligent data analysis, becoming one of the most significant
conferences on this topic world-wide. Contributions in this field deal
with either theoretical or applied real-world problems making special
effort in introducing novel data analysis techniques.
Publications:
-------------
The proceedings will be published in the Lecture Notes in Computer
Science Series of Springer. The proceedings of previous symposia
appeared in this series as LNCS volumes 1280, 1642, 2189, 2810 and
3646.
We also plan to have a special issue of the Intelligent Data Analysis
journal with extended versions of a number of papers presented during
the symposium. www.iospress.nl/html/1088467x.html">http://www.iospress.nl/html/1088467x.html
