2015 International Workshop on Trajectory-based Behaviour Analytics (TrBA 2015)

Call for Workshop Papers

2015 International Workshop on Trajectory-based Behaviour Analytics (TrBA 2015)

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@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
