Overview

During the past decade, the ACM SIGKDD conference has established itself as the premier international conference on knowledge discovery and data mining with an attendance of 600-900 people. To continue with this tradition, the tenth ACM SIGKDD conference will provide a forum for researchers from academia, industry, and government, developers, practitioners, and the data mining user community to share their research and experience. The SIGKDD conference will feature keynote presentations, oral paper presentations, poster presentations, workshops, tutorials, and panels, as well as the KDD Cup competition. Papers on all aspects of knowledge discovery and data mining are solicited.

Submission Procedures

Separate submission procedures exist for each of the two tracks:

• Research Track Submission Information
• Industrial/Government Track Submission Information

Best Paper Awards

The KDD-2004 Best Paper awards recognize the best paper in two categories: fundamental research and applications/applied research. Fundamental research papers are judged by the significance and originality of their contribution. Applications/applied research papers are judged by the practical impact and current or potential usefulness of the work. In both cases, the clarity and quality of presentation are also considered.
