Sponsored by Caltech and London Business School http://cs.caltech.edu/~learn/nncm Neural networks have been applied to a number of live systems in the capital markets, and in many cases have demonstrated better performance than competing approaches. Because of the increasing interest in the NNCM conferences held in the U.K. and the U.S., the fourth annual NNCM will be held on November 20-22, 1996, in Pasadena, California. This is a research meeting where original and significant contributions to the field are presented. A day of tutorials (Wednesday, November 20) is included to familiarize audiences of different backgrounds with some of the key financial and mathematical aspects of the field. Invited Speakers: The conference will feature invited talks by three internationally recognized researchers: Dr. Rob Engle, UC San Diego Dr. Andrew Lo, MIT Sloan School Dr. Paul Refenes, London Business School Contributed Papers: NNCM-96 will have 4 oral sessions and 2 poster sessions with more than 40 contributed papers presented by academicians and practitioners from all six continents, both from the neural networks side and the capital markets side. Each paper has been refereed by 3 experts in the field. The areas of the accepted papers include price forecasting for stocks, bonds, commodities, and foreign exchange; asset allocation and risk management; volatility analysis and pricing of derivatives; cointegration, correlation, and multivariate data analysis; credit assessment and economic forecasting; statistical methods, learning techniques, and hybrid systems. Tutorials: Before the main program, there will be a day of tutorials on Wednesday, November 20, 1996. Three two-hour tutorials will be presented as follows: Statistical Models of Financial Volatility Dr. Rob Engle, University of California, San Diego Universal Portfolios and Information Theory Dr. Tom Cover, Stanford University Data-Snooping and Other Selection Biases in Financial Econometrics Dr. Andrew Lo, MIT Sloan School We are very pleased to have tutors of such caliber help bring new audiences from different backgrounds up to speed in this cross-disciplinary area.

A preliminary call was announced three months ago in dbworld. It could be nice to annouce it again. Thanks, -Jiawei P.S. --------------- Call For Papers --------------- ------------------------------------------------- Journal of Intelligent Information Systems (JIIS) ------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------- Special Issue on Data Mining ---------------------------- As a young, promising research area with broad applications, data mining and knowledge discovery in databases has attracted great interest in the research communities of database systems, machine learning, statistics, high performance computing, information retrieval, data visualization, and many others. As an example, ACM-SIGMOD'96 Workshop on Research Issues on Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery (DMKD'96) held in Montreal, Canada (June 2, 1996) attracted over 100 attendees. Also, KDD'96 conference held in Portland, Oregon, August 2-4, 1996, received over 200 submissions and attracted over 500 attendees. With such overwhelming interest in this area, the Journal of Intelligent Information Systems (JIIS) is organizing a special issue on Data Mining. The information on JIIS and instructions to authors are available at: http://www.isse.gmu.edu/JIIS/ The journal published a Special Issue on Knowledge Discovery in Databases in Volume 4, Number 1, January 1995. We welcome research and applications papers addressing the following issues to be submitted to this special issue. 1. Foundations, principles and methodologies of data mining, including Data mining methods and techniques Efficiency and scalability of KDD algorithms Mining different kinds of knowledge from data Integration of deductive and inductive techniques Statistics, probability and uncertainty in data mining Maintenance of mined knowledge and knowledge-base construction Knowledge evolution through learning Methods for knowledge discovery in advanced database systems (including object-oriented, deductive, spatial, temporal, textual, multimedia, heterogeneous, transaction, and active databases, and global information systems) 2. Systems and implementations for data mining, including Knowledge discovery systems, implementations, and performance Languages and interfaces for knowledge discovery in databases Interactive data mining and knowledge visualization Integrated discovery systems Integration of data mining and data warehousing Systems, implementations, and performance for knowledge discovery in advanced database systems 3. Knowledge discovery applications, including Successful knowledge discovery application examples in industry, administration, business, and science or engineering New application challenges and requirements for data mining (e.g., science, engineering, education) The inadequacy of current knowledge discovery mechanisms Influence of data mining to the advances of database systems Security and social impact of data mining IMPORTANT DATES Submissions Due: November 1, 1996 Review Notice: January 31, 1997 Final Version due: March 15, 1997 Five hard copies of the paper, with the length limited to 20 pages, should be submitted by November 1, 1996 to Dr. Jiawei Han School of Computing Science Simon Fraser University Burnaby, B.C.
