In conjunction with the
29th International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML 2012)
Edinburgh, UK, June 30, 2012
The International Workshop on Learning from User-generated Content (LUC)
serves as a forum for theoretical and practical discussions of cutting
edge research on machine learning technologies for multimedia
information retrieval. Topics covered include all aspects of machine
learning with a relation to social media and user-generated content, in
particular, (social) web mining, multimedia information extraction,
retrieval, and recommendation as well as mobile applications and
services that make use of machine learning and Web technology.
Submissions addressing concrete implementations of systems and services
by both academic institutions and industrial companies are also welcome.
Call for Papers:
----------------
While the amount of user-generated content has been skyrocketing since
the advent of social media and social networks, intelligent approaches
to process and make sense of these huge masses of data produced by over
a billion users are rather rare so far.
Hence, we solicit innovative technical papers with a focus on
user-generated content and addressing problems in the fields of machine
learning, multimedia, or information retrieval. Also contributions that
combine two or more of these fields are highly welcome.
We invite authors to submit *** regular technical papers of up to 8
pages *** as well as *** short position or demo papers of 2-4 pages ***.
Regardless of their category, submissions must follow the ACM author
guidelines. Paper submissions must be original and not submitted to or
accepted by any other conference or journal. All submissions to this
workshop will be peer-reviewed by at least three Program Committee
members. The review process will be double-blind.

-------------------
- Social Media and Network Analysis
