ICCS 2015, AMCMD Workshop
"Applications of Matrix Computational Methods in the Analysis of Modern Data” Workshop
Reykjavik, Iceland June 1-3, 2015
INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPUTATIONAL SCIENCE
Workshop in:
Applications of Matrix Computational Methods in the Analysis of “Modern Data”
Objectives and Description of the Workshop:
“Modern Data” has unique characteristics such as, extreme sparsity, high correlation, high dimensionality and massive size. Modern data is very prevalent in all different areas of science such as Medicine, Environment, Finance, Marketing, Vision, Imaging, Text, Web, etc. A major difficulty is that many of the old methods that have been developed for analyzing data during the last decades cannot be applied on modern data. One distinct solution, to overcome this difficulty, is the application of matrix computation and factorization methods such as SVD (singular value decomposition), PCA (principal component analysis), and NMF (non- negative matrix factorization), without which the analysis of modern data is not possible. This workshop covers the application of matrix computational science techniques in dealing with Modern Data.

"Authors are invited to submit manuscripts reporting original, unpublished research and recent developments in any of the workshop themes. All accepted papers will be included in the open-access Procedia Computer Science series and indexed by Scopus, ScienceDirect, Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation (former ISI Proceedings) – an integrated index within Web of Science. The papers will contain linked references, XML versions and citable DOI numbers.
The manuscripts of up to 10 pages, written in English and formatted according to the Easychair templates, should be submitted electronically. Papers must be based on unpublished original work and must be submitted to ICCS only. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. Copyright forms are only needed after the paper has been accepted for publication in the proceedings.
Deadlines for draft paper submission, notification of acceptance, camera-ready paper submission and registration may be found in the Important Dates section.
After the conference, selected papers will be invited for a special issue of the Journal of Computational Science (Impact Factor 1.567)
Please submit your paper via the conference website at Easychair . Do Not Forget to select the "Applications of Matrix Computational Methods in the Analysis of Modern Data" track when submitting.
