June 22-26 2020, Calgary, Canada
========= INTRODUCTION ==========
In the big data era, with the enrichment of data collection and description measures, a wide array of data in various formats are collected much easier than before. It is significant to discover the knowledge hidden in the mass by comprehensive understanding and learning to realize the data intelligence, which can help human in various dimensions, such as intelligent decisions and predictive services. However, the volume, heterogeneous, low-quality and multimodal characteristics of the collected data pose great challenges to the design of knowledge discovery methods. Therefore, this workshop aims to provide a forum to present the state-of-the-art advancements on knowledge discovery for big data, which include related surveys, algorithms, platforms, systems and applications.
========= Topics =========
The topics include but not limited to:
Acquisition, transmission, storage, index and visualization for big data
Innovative methods for big data analytics
Multimodal data fusion
Cross-modal reasoning and retrieval
Domain adaption and transfer learning
Zero-shot and few-shot learning
Deep learning and reinforcement learning
Knowledge graphs
Natural language processing
Parallel, accelerated, and distributed algorithms and frameworks for big data
Security, privacy and trust in big data
Big data in Internet of Things
Methods for academic, traffic, medical, financial, and judicial big data
Other methods, models, architectures and applications related to big data
