IEEE DSAA Introduction
IEEE DSAA 2017 aims to be a flagship data science and analytics conference, providing a premier forum for discussions and exchange of ideas on the latest theoretical developments in Data Science as well as on the best practices for a wide range of applications.
DSAA Special Sessions
Special sessions play a big role in promoting relevant focused areas that are not well covered in the main conference tracks, bringing together researchers, industry experts, practitioners and potential users who are interested in different aspects of data science and analytics.
DSAA 2017 will feature a number of special sessions that are intended to cover some of the relevant but more specialized topics. For the record, DSAA 2016 featured 9 special sessions, the list of which is available online at the 2016 conference Web page.
Special session proposals will be reviewed based on the quality of the proposals and their relationship to the main conference topics; preference will be given to timely topics that will favor highly interactive discussions and exchange of ideas.
Both the paper submission date and the notification date for all special sessions are the same as those of the main conference tracks. Special session organizers will form a program committee, will assign reviewers to papers and will make recommendations of acceptance/rejection for papers in their sessions.
DSAA Special Session Paper Selection and Publishing
To guarantee a uniform quality control for special sessions and to be consistent with the main conference, final decisions of acceptance/rejection are done by the DSAA program chair and/or general chair.
Special sessions proposals should be submitted through email to both special session chairs.
