DPPG: Data for Policy and Public Good

Objective:
With advancement in Data processing, managing technologies, availability of high-performance hardware, more and more avenues for use of Machine learning and related mechanisms in policy and public good are opening. Big Data as a buzz word is proving to be a melting point of business, research and governance. Legacy statistical methods and social analytics are now being complemented by computational methods. More researchers are utilizing various computational methods and harnessing satellite image data, air and water quality data, market behavior, mobile call record data, public utility data to give policy and business decisions. We would like to propose research that are in cross-disciplinary mode and harnesses ideas from social science, computational science, any other branch of knowledge.

DO: Digital Oilfield

Objective:
Digital Oilfield special session is dedicated to the problem of oilfield industrial processes automation in order to enhance the oil recovery. Special attention is to be paid to the Data mining techniques. Researchers and oil production companies representatives are invited, who are interested in the following topics:
  • Oilfield operators' industrial decision support systems;
  • Contemporary and perspective automation control systems;
  • Enhancement of heavy oil production;
  • Oil wells recovery methods;
  • Artificial intelligence methods application in the tasks of oil industry;
  • Pattern recognition and digital image processing in the local oilfield tasks' solution.

MLMIA: Machine Learning for Medical Image Analysis and Computer Vision

Objective:
It becomes that much easier to gather image data by the rapid development measurement devises, network systems, and IoT technologies. One of the hot research areas should be computer vision and medical image analysis. The paradigm is shifting how analyze and how utilize the obtained big image data. Here, machine Learning plays the most fundamental role. This session will invite paper submissions related to various kind of machine learning techniques for computer vision and applications including medical image analysis. And, contribution to practical application and results are welcome.

Call for Mini-Workshop (W) / Organized Session (OS) / Tutorial Session (TS) Proposals

We welcome you to organize Mini-Workshop / Organized Session / Tutorial Session in the ICIEV!

The aim of a W/OS/TS is to provide a complementary flavor to the regular sessions and should include hot topics of interest to the ICIEV areas/topics that may also go beyond disciplines traditionally represented at the ICIEV.

Proposal Submission:
Prospective organizers of W/OS/TS should submit proposals with the info below:
  • Title of the W/OS/TS:
  • Objective of the W/OS/TS: Define & explain - how the W/OS/TS will be different/related from the subjects covered by the regular sessions.
  • Name of the W/OS/TS organizers and short profiles of them.
  • Information on possible papers, presenters and apart from papers to be presented, mention whether you will invite any speaker for the W/OS/TS. [Minimum number of papers for an OS: 4 accepted papers at least]
  • Mini-Workshop length: Half-day workshop may be allowed.
Email office [AT-MARK] iciev.org with your proposal.

W/OS/TS's evaluation criteria:
  • Interest on the topic
  • Evaluation on the organizers [& panel of experts reviewers for W/OS]
  • Plan of the W/OS/TS
All papers presented in the W/OS will be included in the Conference Proceedings. Therefore, all papers must submit according to the instructions of the ICIEV.
Don't miss this opportunity to attend this conference!
We are looking forward to have you in the conference!
