Knowledge Discovery from Sensor Data to be published in 2008
Oustanding presented papers are being submitted for publication in a top Journal
Call for Papers
Wide-area sensor infrastructures, remote sensors, and wireless sensor networks yield massive volumes of disparate, dynamic, and geographically distributed data. As sensors are becoming ubiquitous, a set of broad requirements is beginning to emerge across high-priority applications including disaster preparedness and management, adaptability to climate change, national or homeland security, and the management of critical infrastructures. The raw data from sensors need to be efficiently managed and transformed to usable information through data fusion, which in turn must be converted to predictive insights via knowledge discovery, ultimately facilitating automated or human-induced tactical decisions or strategic policy. The challenges for the Knowledge Discovery community are immense. On the one hand, dynamic data streams or events require real-time analysis methodologies and systems, while on the other hand centralized processing through high end computing is required for generating offline predictive insights, which in turn can facilitate real-time analysis. Problems ranging from mitigating hurricane impacts, preparing for abrupt climate change, preventing terror attacks and monitoring improvised explosive devices require knowledge discovery solutions designed to detect and analyze anomalies, change, extremes and nonlinear processes, and departures from normal behavior.

POST WORKSHOP ANNOUNCEMENTS
Attendance:
The workshop was a success; more than 70 participants registered and attended the workshop.
Book Publication - Knowledge Discovery from Sensor Data:
Plans are in top gear to publish the First Edition of our book titled "Knowledge Discovery from Sensor Data" before the end of 2008. Authors of all accepted workshop papers have submitted their contributions and editors of the book are compiling the chapters. The editors have already signed a contract with the CRC Press to publish the book.
Paper Publication:
Extended versions of the best papers accepted and presented at the workshop are currently being submitted for consideration to be published in a special issue of the journal Intelligent Data Analysis.
