We have a fantastic lineup of full-day and half-day workshops to be held in conjunction with KDD 2016. The purpose of a workshop is to provide an opportunity for participants from academia, industry, government and other related parties to present and discuss novel ideas on current and emerging topics relevant to knowledge discovery and data mining. This year's workshops are scheduled for August 14, 2016.
