Welcome to the 2012 KDD Mutimedia Data Mining (MDM) workshop homepage!
The
workshop will bring together experts in the analysis of digital media
content, multimedia databases, knowledge engineers and domain experts
from different applied disciplines with potential in multimedia data
mining. A new theme of this edition of the workshop is to present and
discuss how multimedia is integrated into people’s daily life. Since
mobile devices have been the most popular platform for multimedia
applications, and these applications are often enhanced with
geographical locations, we want to focus this workshop on both mobile
and geo applications and data mining.

Workshop at a Glance:
|
As
evidenced by the success of the previous editions of MDM/KDD, there is
an increasing interest in new techniques and tools that can detect and
discover patterns, in multimedia data, that can lead to new knowledge. Big
data and large scale analytics is a fundamental problem within computer
science. The accelerating data avalanche is gaining unimpeded momentum
that is increasing the volume and variety of information.
Specifically, a growing and increasingly relevant component of today’s
corpora of information is multimedia data. Within the knowledge
discovery and data mining community and as evidenced by the success
of the previous decade of the Workshop, there is an increasing
interest in new techniques and tools that can detect and discover
patterns in multimedia data, that can lead to new knowledge.
Multimedia information is ubiquitious, a digital capsule, deliverable,
artful, and empirical. An enabler for multimedia data and a new focus
for the workshop examined content acquisition and delivery within mobile
devices. Consumer grade tablets, cell phones, and cameras provide
affordable multimedia devices for sound, video, and image. For example,
in tablet computing, forward facing cameras capture video and images
that can be edited for individual use and published to social media
sites. Business and events such as the 2011 Wimbledon, provide the
science of tennis, scores, and statistics to mobile devices so that
patrons can enjoy streaming updates of simultaneous matches. Theme
parks such as Walt Disney publish park information in the form of text,
sound, video, and images that is accessible by mobile devices.
Of particular interest are ideas that relate to:
- Emerging technology of data mining for mobile applications.
- Emerging
technology of data mining on media rich platforms and location enhanced
environments (location based services like Foursquare, mobile maps,
navigation systems, GIS applications).
- Multimedia data mining across platforms, including web and mobile devices.
- Mining large datasets of user generated content with a geographical dimension.
- Scalable mobile multimedia computing.
- Scalable mobile visual search.
- Predictive and prescriptive multimedia data modeling.
- Privacy preserving data mining.
- Mining multimedia time series.
- Multi-objective multimedia data mining.
- Anomaly and outlier detection in multimedia databases.
- Merging and integration of mining results from different sources (e.g, ensembles, fusion techniques, etc.).
- Scalable data mining techniques for large-scale multimedia databases.
- Human-computer interfaces for multimedia data mining.
- Topic and event discovery in large multimedia repositories.
