Call for Workshop Papers

2015 International Workshop on Trajectory-based Behaviour Analytics (TrBA
2015)
http://wp.csiro.au/trba2015/

January 25–26, 2015, Austin Texas, USA
Held in Conjunction with the 29th AAAI Conference on Artificial
Intelligence (AAAI 2015)

In recent years, data driven scientific discovery approach has already been
agreed to be an important emerging paradigm for computing in areas
including social network, service, Internet of Things (or sensor networks),
and cloud. Under this paradigm, big data is the core that drives new
researches in many domains, from environmental to social. One important
source of information for potential value creation is the real-time
trajectory data obtained from entities including animals, robots and
humans. The trajectory information naturally reveals the details of
instantaneous behaviours conducted by entities, which is closely related
with complex behaviours in the form of multiple interdependent multivariate
time series data with varied locations. This forms the need and emergence
of behaviour modelling (i.e. understanding behaviours from cognitive and
analytics perspectives) and behaviour system construction (i.e. developing
cognition-as-a-service systems to support decision making).

The 2015 Workshop on Trajectory-based Behaviour Analytics (TrBA 2015)
focuses on addressing deep science and research questions related to
behavioural analytics for real-time trajectory-driven data applications as
well as its value delivery platform systems. The expected outcome is to
promote TrBA as an important research forum by its own with relevant
challenging problems and emerging issues. TrBA 2015 encourages topics
related but is not limited to: (1) Trajectory-based Behaviour
Representation and Modelling; (2) Trajectory-based Behaviour Network; (3)
Multiple/heterogeneous Trajectory-based Behaviour Integration; (4)
Trajectory-based Behaviour Dynamics and Evolution.

Papers must be formatted in AAAI two-column, camera-ready style; see the
author instruction page for details (
http://www.aaai.org/Conferences/AAAI/2015/aaai15call.php). Submitted papers
may be no longer than 7 pages with page 7 containing nothing but
references.

Please submit a full-length paper through the online submission system
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=trba2015. This one-day workshop
will be organized in terms of Invited Talks, Paper Presentations, and Panel
Discussions.

=========================================================
Electronic submission of full papers due: *October 14, 2014*
Notification of paper acceptance: November 14, 2014
Camera-ready of accepted papers due: November 21, 2014
Workshop date: January 25-26, 2015
===========================================================

All submissions will be reviewed by the Program Committee on the basis of
technical quality, relevance to big data and behaviour analytics,
originality, significance, and clarity. All accepted papers will be
published by AAAI in a separate AAAI 2015 workshop proceeding. Selected
high-quality papers accepted and presented in the workshop will also be
invited for extension and publication in the special issue of some
international SCI journal (pending).

Workshop Organization Co-chairs:

Dr. Can Wang, CSIRO, Australia (canwang613 at gmail.com)
Dr. Wei Zhou, CSIRO, Australia
Prof. Chi-Hung Chi, CSIRO, Australia
Dr. Yu Zheng, Microsoft Research, China


Thanks a lot for your support on TrBA 2015. Welcome to submit papers to
TrBA 2015.


Cheers,
  Can Wang
