The explosion of information continues to accelerate. Even in limited domains, the amount of available knowledge is usually too great for any one person or group of persons to grasp and utilize effectively. Mapping of knowledge domains is a new scientific discipline aimed at using the developing speed and power of computation to chart, mine, analyze, sort, and display interesting and important aspects of (electronically available) knowledge. Colloquium speakers will present state-of-the-art research on databases, formats, and access; data analysis algorithms; visualization and interaction methods; and promising applications. This looks like an interesting conference. Check out the program for a list of researchers working in this space. |
