The knowledge and data management area of the INFORMS Journal on Computing
invites technical papers on the analysis, design and management of knowledge
discovery and data mining methods and systems. Selected papers will be
published in a special cluster on this topic. The journal is an official
publication of the Institute for Operations Research and Management
Sciences, and focuses on the interface between operations
research/management science and computer science. Papers that deal with
algorithms for system design, methods for efficient information management,
and analytical or empirical studies of system performance are welcome.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

* performance analysis of KD/DM algorithms (efficiency, scalability,
reliability, etc.)
* the use of optimization methods in KD/DM
* comparative studies of KD/DM versus other exploratory data analysis
methods, including
traditional statistical and mathematical programming models
* analysis of context-specific KD/DM methods
* neural networks in KD/DM
* performance analysis of uncertainty management methods in KD/DM
* analysis of KD/DM algorithms in large-scale, distributed and/or
heterogeneous database systems
* efficiency and scalability analysis of KD/DM algorithms for specialized
databases
(spatial, temporal, multimedia, statistical, etc.)
* analysis of data mining methods on confidential data
* efficient data preprocessing methods (e.g., scrubbing, sampling and
reduction) for data mining
* performance of KD/DM methods on multidimensional data

Deadline: July 31, 1997.
