Student Travel Support for the 2013 SIAM International Conference on Data Mining

该奖项为大约26名学生提供差旅支持，以参加由工业与应用数学学会(SIAM)与美国统计协会合作举办的2013年SIAM数据挖掘(SDM 2013)会议(以及博士生论坛)。SDM 2013将于2013年5月2日至4日在美国得克萨斯州奥斯汀举行。博士论坛将包括面向数据挖掘或密切相关领域的博士候选人或在博士候选人资格方面取得重大进展的博士生的海报部分。博士生论坛的参与者将能够展示他们的工作，与来自其他大学的同行以及来自世界各地的数百名数据挖掘领域的领先研究人员进行互动。此外，他们还将参加大会上的技术会议、全体会议以及他们选择的教程和研讨会。每个学生都将被指派一名高级研究员，在各种与职业相关的问题上担任导师。参加主要的数据挖掘研究会议是博士生数据挖掘培训的一个组成部分。SDM 2013 Doctorul学生论坛旨在为博士生提供机会介绍他们的工作，并从数据挖掘领域的知名研究人员那里获得建设性的反馈和指导。这样的反馈和辅导有望提高学生的论文研究质量。同样，获得旅行奖励的学生将能够参加技术会议、全体讲座、小组讨论、教程和研讨会。他们将与其他大学有着相似兴趣的同行以及来自世界各地的数百名数据挖掘领域的顶尖研究人员进行互动。数据挖掘在许多新兴的数据丰富的科学和应用领域发挥着越来越重要的作用，如医疗信息学、生物信息学、计算生物学、链接分析、反恐和安全。SDM 2013博士生论坛将丰富学生研究人员职业生涯早期的教育和培训。参加SDM 2013将使学生接触到尖端研究和各种领域的相关应用。旅行奖项将有助于扩大妇女和数据挖掘研究社区中代表性不足群体的成员的参与。

This award provides travel support for approximately 26 students to attend the 2013 SIAM Data Mining (SDM 2013) Conference (and the Doctoral Student Forum) that is being organized by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) in cooperation with the American Statistical Association. SDM 2013 is being held in Austin, Texas, USA from May 2 to 4, 2013. The Doctoral Forum will consist of a poster session for Ph.D. candidates in data mining or closely related areas or Ph.D. students who have made significant progress towards Ph.D. candidacy. The Ph.D. student forum participants will be able to present their work, interact with their peers from other universities as well as hundreds of leading researchers in data mining from around the world. In addition, they will attend the technical sessions, plenary talks, and tutorials and workshops of their choice at the conference. Each student will be assigned a senior researcher to serve as a mentor on a variety of career-related issues.Participation in premier research conferences in data mining is an integral component of the training of Ph.D. students in data mining. The SDM 2013 Doctorul Student Forum is aimed at providing an opportunity for Ph.D. candidates to present their work and receive constructive feedback and mentoring from established researchers in data mining. Such feedback and mentoring is expected to improve the quality of the students thesis research. Similarly, student recipient of a travel award will be able to attend technical sessions, plenary talks, panels, tutorials and workshops. They will interact with peers who share similar interests from other universities, as well as hundreds of leading researchers in data mining from around the world. This experience will be extremely formative and fruitful towards the shaping of their future research endeavors.Data mining is playing an increasingly important role in many emerging data-rich sciences and application domains, such as healthcare informatics, bioinformatics, computational biology, link analysis, counterterrorism and security. The SDM 2013 Doctoral Student forum will enrich the education and training of student researchers at early stages in their careers. Attendance in SDM 2013 will expose students to cutting-edge research and to relevant applications in a variety of domains. The travel awards will help broaden the participation of women and members of under-represented groups within the Data Mining research community.
