> 1st Call for Papers: KDBI 2009-Knowledge Discovery and Business  
> Intelligence
> a thematic track of EPIA 2009, the 14th Portuguese Conference on  
> Artificial Intelligence
> Aveiro, Portugal, October 12-15, 2009

> Knowledge Discovery and Business Intelligence
>
> The aim of this thematic track is to gather the latest research in  
> Knowledge Discovery (KD) and Business Intelligence (BI). We  
> encourage papers that deal with the interaction with the end users,  
> taking into account how easily one can understand data model's  
> representation of extracted knowledge or encode expert knowledge, as  
> well as its impact on real organizations. In particular, papers that  
> describe experience and lessons learned from KD/BI projects and/or  
> present business and organizational impacts using AI technologies,  
> are welcome.
>
> The amount of data representing the activities of organizations that  
> is stored in databases is exponentially growing. Moreover, business  
> organizations are increasingly moving towards decision-making  
> processes that are based on information. Thus, pressure to extract  
> as much useful information as possible from these data is very  
> strong. Knowledge Discovery (KD) is a branch of the Artificial  
> Intelligence (AI) field that aims to extract useful and  
> understandable high-level knowledge from complex and/or large  
> volumes of data. Business Intelligence (BI) is an umbrella term that  
> represents computer architectures, tools, technologies and methods  
> to enhance managerial decision making in public and corporate  
> enterprises, from operational to strategic level.
>
> KD and Data Mining (DM) are faced with new challenges. The temporal  
> and spatial nature of the data generation demands new learning  
> approaches, since samples' observations are no longer independent  
> and the underlying regularities may change over time. New challenges  
> are also to be considered when integrating background knowledge into  
> the learning processes. Indeed, the success of hybrid models for  
> knowledge understanding and the dead-end of several purely  
> experimental methods in machine learning and DM are pointing to a  
> more rationalistic view. In this context, the understanding of data  
> and human mind emerges as crucial in combining KD with Cognitive  
> Models. Namely, results in inductive logic or in neuro-symbolic  
> methods seem to show the need of more knowledge aware models.  
> Moreover, AI plays a crucial role in BI, providing methodologies to  
> deal with prediction, optimization and adaptability to dynamic  
> environments, in an attempt to offer support to better (more  
> informed) decisions. In effect, several AI techniques can be used to  
> address these problems, namely KD/DM, Evolutionary Computation and  
> Modern Optimization, Forecasting, Neural Computing and Intelligent  
> Agents.
