摘要

The PAKDD 2007 Industrial Track Workshop was held on the 22nd of May 2007 in conjunction with The 11th Pacific-Asia Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (PAKDD 2007) at the Mandarin Garden Hotel in Nanjing, China. Following the PAKDD conference tradition to promote industry applications of new data mining techniques, methodologies and systems, the theme of this workshop was defined as " Data Mining for Practitioners". Industrial oriented papers on innovative applications of data mining technology to solve real world problems were solicited with emphasis on the following areas: 1. New data mining methodologies 2. Data mining application systems 3. Data cleansing and transformation in data mining 4. New application problems and data mining solutions 5. Data mining in government applications 6. Innovative data mining case studies The workshop received 82 submissions from 9 countries and regions in Asia, Europe and North America. The topics of these submissions covered new techniques, algorithms, systems, traditional applications, such as banking and finance, and new applications in manufacturing, facility management, environment and government services. After a rigorous review by the committee members, 13 papers were selected for presentation at the workshop. The acceptance rate was about 16%. For the industrial track papers in PAKDD series conferences, this low acceptance rate was unprecedented.
