WS1: The Second International Workshop on Interesting Knowledge Mining (IKM 2010)
Scope/Topic :
The IKM Workshop focuses on issues of discovering interesting and actionable knowledge from data. Theoretical advances, algorithms and systems, and application cases that make efforts to derive interesting knowledge from data are welcome contributions.
One of the main goals of KDD is to find nuggets of useful knowledge that could influence or help users in a decision making process. This task can be viewed as searching in an immense space for possible workable, concrete, and profitable strategies to the decision-maker. In the last decade, KDD algorithms have made a tremendous progress and have been demonstrated to be of significant value in a variety of real-world applications. Nevertheless, there is a gap between the discovered patterns and the formulated solutions. Currently, this gap is filled by manual or semi-automatic analysis, which is time consuming, biased, limits the efficiency of KDD overall process and capabilities.
The workshop invites papers on all aspects of diminishing the gap between the discovered results and actual action plans, including, but not limited to:
Intelligent Agent Technology
Intelligent Information Systems
Knowledge Representation and Integration
Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining
Knowledge Visualization

WS3: The 2nd International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence Applications for E-services(AIAE10)
Scope/Topic :
1. Background
Service-Oriented age is coming. User could achieve more and more emerging eservice applications and service via various digital carriers, such as: mobile phone, personal digital assistor (PDA) evens the GPS of vehicle. To realize user behaviors of service-oriented age is becoming an important issue.
A lot of researches had been successfully applied to artificial intelligence (AI) techniques in related research area, such as recommender system, search engine, information retrieve, etc. Thus, we completely accept that drawing attention to applied AI on the topic of e-service is an area that shows great research potential. It could be an important time to shift the research focus to the application area.
Therefore, the committee decided to hold the workshop concentrating on the research topics about AI applications for E-services. The workshop aims at promoting the exchange of ideas in this research area. It is thus valuable to include a workshop about this topic in this year 4th International Conference on Genetic and Evolutionary Computing.

IS1: Object Tracking in Wireless Sensor Networks
Introduction
The object tracking in sensor network has great potential of being widely used in many domains i.e., tracking enemy vehicles, detecting illegal border crossings, tracking the movement of animals in wildlife protection. In such applications, many sensors are involved in collaboration in order to track the object). An important limitation of sensor network is its limited power source, the most important issue for object tracking in sensor network is to track the object with lowest energy consumption, while maintain better tracking accuracy, which is challenging.
Scope/Topic :
Issues of Object Tracking
Single Object Tracking
Multiple Object Tracking
Continuous Object Tracking
Energy Efficient Object Tracking
Efficient Object Tracking
Prediction Based Object Trackin

IS2: Digital watermarking and data hiding for multimedia
Scope/Topic :
With the rapid development of digital multimedia technology, protecting the copyright of digital media from unauthorized distributions and detecting forgery using forensics techniques has become more and more important. Sometimes the recorded digital media can be used as evidence in the court of law. Nowadays multimedia data can easily be perfectly replicated or edited using today's multimedia editing tools, and distributed anywhere through the Internet and WWW. Thus it is of great interest and challenge in multimedia protection and related research. Topics of interests includes (but not limited):
Digital watermarking for multimedia (image, video, audio, speech)
Information theoretic, stochastic aspects of data hiding
Steganography and steganalysis
Data forensics
Media forensic applications and attack analysis
Digital rights management
Mathematical modeling of embedding and detection

IS6: Advanced wireless multimedia communications
Scope/Topic :
Currently, the demands for multimedia-communications as well as its efficient and secure issues have been increasing. Since the secure multimedia-communication requires a high reliability for mobility, a high transmission rate and security technology, current wireless communication networks including 3.5G networks could not able to support the high data rate (more than 20Mbps) and efficient multimedia-communications. Some techniques such as High Speed Data transmission, Emerging Management, Multimedia technologies e.g. Image process, Image Hiding, are applied into wireless communication networks to provide a high data rate transmission service with a secure high quality of service, and they are treated as the candidate to the next generation wireless communication networks. Besides, the wireless heterogeneous networks proposed to provide a high data transmission and high mobility under wide area coverage is another candidate to integrate those networks in the future wireless communications. However, in those wireless networks, there are some technical difficulties to be implemented, such as the restrictions on their core techniques, the effects on wireless environments and requiring issues on secure multimedia-communications, quality of service, seamless handoff, roaming, mobility management and charging problems in the wireless networks.
Topics of Interest:
Following topics will be discussed but are not limited to:
- Advanced mobile networking technologies
- Advanced mobile communication technologies
- Advanced wireless sensor networks
