style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">There is a spectrum of ways to use
data in machine learning and data mining. At the one end is completely
unsupervised learning or clustering, and at the other end is supervised learning
where the target output is known for every instance.<BR><BR>This workshop aims
to explore the space between these extremes, with particular attention to a
variety of real-world applications, and sources of labels. Papers addressing
novel types of data, methods of diagnosing when unlabeled data will help and
when it will hinder, and applying techniques across multiple application domains
and multiple levels of supervision are particularly encouraged. Papers
discussing the acquisition of labels from real-world experts in real-world data
mining problems are also encouraged. Data mining practitioners working on
real-world problems with large amounts of captured/stored data but a high cost
labeling process are encouraged to submit problem descriptions and possible
solutions.</SPAN></P>
