Subject: Request for relevant papers!

I'm trying to apply genetic algorithms to predict 3D (tertiary)
structures of proteins. I intend to use ECEPP/3 energy model. I would
therefore be grateful if you could send me some relevant work in this
area.

Thank you !


With regards,
Rufus Oladele.

Subject: EC conferences references

Some time ago, it was suggested that papers published in EC
conferences should be available in bibtex format. The idea being to
reduce the risk of overlap between conferences and re-inventing the
wheel. To this end I have started assembling a collection of such
bibtex files and making them searchable via the computer science
collection of bibliographies.

I would welcome bibtex files from more (including past)
EC conferences.

The collection can be found at http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~wbl/biblio
and via anonymous ftp from ftp.cs.bham.ac.uk
directory pub/authors/W.B.Langdon/biblio

Additionally there is a www search interface at
http://liinwww.ira.uka.de/bibliography/

    ICDM '02: The 2002 IEEE International Conference on Data Mining
                 Sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                 Maebashi TERRSA, Maebashi City, Japan
                       November 26 - 29, 2002

                       Call for Papers
                       ***************

The 2002 IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (IEEE ICDM '02)
provides a leading international forum for the sharing of original
research results and practical development experiences among
researchers and application developers from different data mining
related areas such as machine learning, automated scientific
discovery, statistics, pattern recognition, knowledge acquisition,
soft computing, databases and data warehousing, data visualization,
and knowledge-based systems.  The conference seeks solutions to
challenging problems facing the development of data mining systems,
and shapes future directions of research by promoting high quality,
novel and daring research findings.  As an important part of the
conference, the workshops program will focus on new research
challenges and initiatives.

Topics of Interest
==================

Topics related to the design, analysis and implementation of data
mining theory, systems and applications are of interest.  These
include, but are not limited to the following areas:

   - Foundations and principles of data mining
   - Data mining algorithms and methods in traditional areas (such as
     classification, clustering, probabilistic modeling, and
     association analysis), and in new areas
   - Data and knowledge representation for data mining
   - Modeling of structured, textual, temporal, spatial, multimedia and
     Web data to support data mining
   - Complexity, efficiency, and scalability issues in data mining
   - Data pre-processing, data reduction, feature selection and feature
     transformation
   - Statistics and probability in large-scale data mining
   - Soft computing (including neural networks, fuzzy logic,
     evolutionary computation, and rough sets) and uncertainty
     management for data mining
   - Integration of data warehousing, OLAP and data mining
   - Man-machine interaction in data mining and visual data mining
   - Artificial intelligence contributions to data mining
   - High performance and distributed data mining
   - Machine learning, pattern recognition and automated scientific
     discovery
   - Quality assessment and interestingness metrics of data mining
     results
   - Process centric data mining and models of data mining process
   - Security and social impact of data mining
   - Emerging data mining applications, such as electronic commerce,
     bioinformatics, Web mining and intelligent learning database systems

Conference Publications and ICDM Best Paper Awards
==================================================

High quality papers in all data mining areas are solicited.  Papers
exploring new directions will receive a careful and supportive review.

There are two different types of paper submission for IEEE ICDM '02:
(1) main track submissions and (2) industry track submissions.

All submitted papers should be limited to a maximum of 6,000 words
(approximately 20 A4 pages), and will be reviewed on the basis of
technical quality, relevance to data mining, originality,
significance, and clarity.

Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings by the
IEEE Computer Society Press.  A selected number of IEEE ICDM '02
accepted papers will be expanded and revised for possible inclusion in
the Knowledge and Information Systems journal
(http://kais.mines.edu/~kais/) by Springer-Verlag.

IEEE ICDM Best Paper Awards will be conferred on the authors of the
best papers at the conference.
