LOD 2019 Industrial Session

As companies today are becoming more and more "data driven", this year we introduced an Industrial Session to encourage both researchers and companies to interact with each other. The basic idea is to create an environment where companies may present their vision, approach and issues on Big Data related topics, while researchers may be better tailor their results for the industrial need.

Thus we encourage both researchers and companies to submit original papers on issues that mostly cover, but are not limited to, areas such as:

Real industrial Big Data/AI based use cases
	            Big Data solutions
	            Industrial applications

Furthermore, participating companies may apply for a 10-min oral talk to present their Big Data related issues (no paper submission is required for this activity). Following these presentations, ad-hoc meetings will be encouraged and organized by LOD itself between companies and researchers to address specific company issues. The idea is just to create a unique environment where companies discuss their Big Data issues with researchers in order to identify solutions for their problems. And, at the same time, offer to researchers the opportunity to develop new algorithms and solutions for Big Data real problems.

Big-Data Challenge

Our sponsor, Neodata Lab, will offer a prize of €2000 to the applicant who develops the most accurate algorithm to process an “approximate SQL-like query answering system” on a real dataset.

In order to participate to this contest (or if you have any inquire about the challenge) please send an email to the following address: 

lod2019challenge at neodatagroup.com mailto:lod2019challenge at neodatagroup.com?subject=LOD%202019%20Industrial%20Session&body=LOD%202019%20Industrial%20Session

specifying your full name and affiliation. We will contact you with directions on how to download sample data.

All applicants will be given a link to download a real large encrypted dataset. The dataset is composed of two tables, one USER table with about 60M unique user ids and an ACTION table with a total of about 600M rows. Both tables are given in a tab separated format. The USER table is about 2.2Gb while the action table is about 35Gb.

The applicants are required to develop an algorithm to provide an approximate answer to a "SQL-like GROUP BY" query in a given time-frame (a few seconds/minutes). Basically, a query should run for no longer thanthe given time-frame and should return the best approximations for the specified counters.

During the conference a new sample of data will be used to test all participating algorithms.

The winner is the algorithm who provides the most accurate answer in the given time-frame.

*** Paper submission deadline approaching: March 31  ***

The International Conference on Machine Learning, Optimization, and Data Science (LOD) has established itself as a premier interdisciplinary conference in machine learning, computational optimization, knowledge discovery and data science. It provides an international forum for presentation of original multidisciplinary research results, as well as exchange and dissemination of innovative and practical development experiences.

LOD 2019 will be held in Certosa di Pontignano (Siena) – Tuscany, Italy, from September 10 to 13, 2019. 

The conference will consist of four days of conference sessions. We invite submissions of papers on all topics related to Machine learning, Optimization, Knowledge Discovery and Data Science including real-world applications for the Conference Proceedings by Springer – Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).

LOD uses the formula of 30 minutes presentations for fruitful exchanges between authors and participants.

Submission deadline: March 31, 2019
