The First International Conference on
Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining
W
ith the advances in data acquisition and storage technologies, the problem of how to
turn raw data into useful information becomes a significant one. Having reached sizes
that defy even partial examination by humans, modern databases and collections of
data sets are literally swamping users. This data firehose phenomenon appears in many fields
including science data analysis, medical and healthcare, corporate and marketing, and financial
markets. Knowledge discovery in databases (KDD) and data mining are areas of common interest
to researchers in machine learning, machine discovery, statistics, intelligent databases, knowledge
acquisition, data visualization, high performance computing, and expert systems. This conference
will continue in the tradition of the 1989, 1991, 1993, and 1994 KDD workshops by bringing
together researchers and application developers from different areas, and focusing on unifying
themes such as the use of domain knowledge, managing uncertainty, interactive (human-oriented) presentation, and applications. The KDD conference also includes invited talks, a demo and
poster session, and panel discussions. The KDD Conference will be held in Montréal, Québec,
August 20–21, 1995. The conference is collocated with IJCAI–95.
