[Deadline Extension] Final Call for IEEE DAPPCON 2019
by Young Park 15 Nov '18

15 Nov '18

IEEE International Conference on Decentralized Applications and Infrastructures (DAPPCON 2019) https://dappcon.net The objective of the 2019 IEEE International Conference on Decentralized Applications and Infrastructures (DAPPCON 2019) is to facilitate the exchange between researchers and practitioners in the area of Decentralized Applications based on Distributed Ledger Technologies, Blockchain, and related technologies. It can be already seen today that Blockchain is making a huge impact on the way digital payments are made. However, the potential implications of Blockchain technologies go far beyond their application as the technological backbone for cryptocurrencies. In recent years, Decentralized Applications (dApps) have emerged as a new model for building massively scalable services. dApps allow for various novel application scenarios, which are built upon distributed consensus and thus are hard to block or censor. While Blockchains such as Bitcoin or Ethereum are based on compute-intense consensus mechanisms, more recent approaches focus on voting- or staking-based algorithms that support higher transactions per second and are also better-suited to reflect proportions of majority ownership, which are required in many enterprise application scenarios. Also, the integration of Smart Contracts into Blockchains, for example, based on Ethereum or Hyperledger, leads to a plethora of possible use cases for dApps. DAPPCON 2019 will provide a high-quality forum for participants from research and industry. The conference will discuss key theories, algorithms, infrastructures, and significant applications for Decentralized Applications and Infrastructures, as well as emerging research topics. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Blockchain theory - Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT) - Decentralized Applications / Smart Contracts - Consensus protocols for Decentralized Applications - Infrastructures for Decentralized Applications - Communication protocols and standards for Decentralized Applications - Identity Management for Decentralized Applications - Token economy - dApps/DLT/Blockchain analytics - dApps/DLT/Blockchain governance - dApps/DLT/Blockchain interoperability - dApps/DLT/Blockchain privacy - dApps/DLT/Blockchain security - dApps/DLT/Blockchain scalability and performance - dApps/DLT/Blockchain policy/law - dApps/DLT/Blockchain applications in areas such as Internet of Things, Logistics, or Health - dApps/DLT/Blockchain emerging research topics Important Dates - Extended until Nov. 30, 2018: Abstract registration & paper submission deadline - Jan. 14, 2019: Author notification - Jan. 31, 2019: Camera-ready submission and conference registration - Apr. 5 - 8, 2019: Conference Invitation letters for visa applications will be available on the day of the author notification.

Call for Book Chapter- Springer- Deep learning based approaches for sentiment analysis
by Basant Agarwal 12 Nov '18

12 Nov '18

*Call for Book Chapter- Springer* *Book Title*: Deep learning based approaches for sentiment analysis *The scope of the book:* With the exponential growth in the use of social media networks such as Twitter, Facebook, and many others, an astronomical amount of big data has been generated. A substantial amount of this user-generated data is in form of text such as reviews, tweets, and blogs that provide numerous challenges as well as opportunities to NLP (Natural Language Processing) researchers for discovering meaningful information used in various applications. Sentiment analysis is the study that analyses people's opinion and sentiment towards entities such as products, services, person, organisations etc. present in the text. Sentiment analysis and opinion mining is the most popular and interesting research problem. In recent years, Deep Learning approaches have emerged as powerful computational models and have shown significant success to deal with a massive amount of data in unsupervised settings. Deep learning is revolutionizing because it offers an effective way of learning representation and allows the system to learn features automatically from data without the need of explicitly designing them. Deep learning algorithms such as deep autoencoders, convolutional and recurrent neural networks (CNN) (RNN), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) have reported providing significantly improved results in various natural language processing tasks including sentiment analysis. Topics of Interest: This book solicits contributions from the field of sentiment analysis using deep learning. Each book chapter should cover the solutions with the state-of-the-art and novel approaches for the sentiment analysis problems and challenges. Topics to be discussed in this edited book include but not are limited to: 1. Introduction to the Deep learning algorithms and sentiment analysis 2. Recent trends and advances in deep learning based sentiment analysis 3. Deep Neural Networks for Sentiment Analysis of Short Texts 4. Learning word representations for sentiment analysis 5. Learning sentiment-specific word embeddings for sentiment analysis 6. Improving the performance of the sentiment analysis model using learning representation of out-of-vocabulary words 7. Deep neural network based sentiment analysis model for sarcastic tweets 8. A deep neural network for Cross-domain sentiment analysis 9. Financial Sentiment analysis using deep learning algorithms 10.

Special Issue "The Second International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining"
by Massimo CAFARO 10 Nov '18

10 Nov '18

Special Issue "The Second International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining" A special issue of Algorithms (ISSN 1999-4893). Deadline for manuscript submissions: 21 December 2018 http://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/special_issues/Parallel_Distributed_… Special Issue Information Dear Colleagues, This Special Issue is devoted to the increasing interest in the design and implementation of parallel and distributed data mining algorithms. The Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining (WPDM 2018) is an international forum that brings together researchers and practitioners, working on different high-performance aspects of data mining algorithms, enabling novel applications. Indeed, datasets grow so rapidly that, every day, exabytes of data are being generated, and, in order to extract and infer useful knowledge, parallel processing techniques are required to cope with this huge volume of data: Traditional sequential software is not viable to cope with them. When the data are generated in different places (such as wireless sensor networks and/or Internet of things devices), they may be geographically spread out, and the data cannot be sent to a centralized site, thus, the need for distributed processing algorithms arises. Topics relevant to this Special Issue cover the scope of the WPDM 2018 Workshop (http://sara.unisalento.it/~cafaro/WPDM2018/): - Parallel data mining algorithms using MPI and/or OpenMP - Parallel data mining algorithms targeting GPUs and many-cores accelerators - Parallel data mining applications exploiting FPGA - Distributed data mining algorithms - Benchmarking and performance studies of high-performance data mining applications - Novel programming paradigms to support high-performance computing for data mining - Performance models for high-performance data mining applications and middleware - Programming models, tools, and environments for high-performance computing in data mining - Caching, streaming, pipelining, and other optimization techniques for data management in high-performance computing for data mining Extended versions of papers presented at WPDM 2018 are sought, but this call for papers is fully open to all those who wish to contribute by submitting a relevant research manuscript. Manuscript Submission Information Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website. Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Algorithms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI. Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 850 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions. Special Issue Editors Guest Editor Assoc.
