To be held at the International Conference ACM KDD 2024 | Barcelona, Spain

Special Day Themes


The European Data Science Day offers a full day focused exclusively on innovative KDD-relevant research and development projects from national and regional funding programs, as well as corporate, start-up, and nonprofit channels. We seek to bring together a diverse community of researchers in Data Science, Machine Learning and Language Technologies, as well as partnerships in the social and physical sciences/arts, to show the state-of-the-art in research and applications.

We are soliciting submissions primarily from collaborative projects, whether publicly or privately funded. We will give preference to open science and innovation projects, especially those with contributions to open source, open data, or contributing to socially impactful goals. However, we welcome submissions from especially interesting projects that do not exactly fit these criteria if they provide new insights and compelling demonstrations.

Instructions for Authors


Submissions to European Data Science Track containing the following information:

  • Brief description of the research goals and partners;
  • What is the main contribution/innovation that you would like to show?
  • How does this fit with the KDD ecosystem?
  • If available, provide links to online demonstrations (recommended), or a description of what you plan to show interactively to the audience;
  • If available, provide links to project URL, repositories, and other dissemination materials you have available (optional).

Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts (1-2 pages), written in English by June 10th, 2024 in .pdf format via submission page, in case of any issues it is allowed to submit by e-mail to dunja.mladenic@ijs.si with subject "EU Day KDD-2024 submission".

Program


The programm contains Keynote presentations, project presentaitons and posters.

Projects will be given 5-15 minute pitch/presentation slots, plus demonstration time, and a poster slot. All projects must provide instructive and compelling demonstrations, NOT marketing.

Evaluation of submissions will be based on the level of innovation and research breakthroughs, fit with KDD, how compelling the demonstrations/additional information are, and the need to create an event with a broad array of themes.
