Data science is an interdisciplinary field about scientific processes, methodologies, and systems to extract useful knowledge or insights from data in various forms. Data can be analyzed using data mining, machine learning, data analysis and statistics, optimizing processes and maximizing the knowledge exploitation in real-life settings.
DaS 2017 is a workshop aimed at fostering and sharing research and innovation on data science. The workshop will allow researchers and practitioners to exchange their ideas and experiences on designing and developing data science applications, to discuss the main open issues and to share novel solutions for data management and analytics.
Researchers are encouraged to submit their papers describing systems, platforms, algorithms, methodologies and applications addressing all facets of a data-driven technological solution. Industrial implementations of data science applications, design and deployment experience reports on various issues raising in data science projects are particularly welcome. We call for research and experience papers as well as demonstration proposals covering any aspect of a data science application (e.g., smart cities, e-commerce, social networks, bio-sciences and healthcare, business analytics and finance, Internet of Things).
Submission Guidelines
