Social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn have paved the way for generating huge amount of diverse data in a short period of time. Such social media data require the application of big data analytics to produce meaningful information to both information consumers and data generators. Machine learning and AI techniques are particularly effective in situations where deep and predictive insights need to be uncovered from such social media data sets that are large, diverse and fast changing. We aim to focus on machine learning and AI driven data analytics and predictive modeling on social media and the web. We invite researchers that are interested in going beyond standard analytics approaches and discovering the knowledge/insights hidden in the large and fast-changing social media data. In this context, we would also like to invite researchers in the machine learning, AI, natural language processing, data and web mining community to lend their expertise to help to increase our understanding of the web and social media. We are interested in receiving papers related to the following topics which include but are not limited to: * AI, machine learning and natural language processing for social media, big data and the web * Learning analytics methods or frameworks for social media, big data and the web * Learning activities, applications and interventions * Approaches for social influence learning * Learning methods for social link prediction * Methods for learning social activities and behavioral analytic metrics * Approaches and algorithms for efficient learning * Evaluation of learning analytics frameworks and metrics * Applications of any of the above methods and technologies The goal of this workshop is to study the application of machine learning and AI approaches and algorithms to social media, big data and the web. Submissions: We solicit full research papers (4-6 pages), and short papers (1-4 pages) both in the ACM conference paper style.
