Where to Go

Scientifically

Many specific research
issues
Where to Go

The scenario of Agents & Data Mining research

There are many groups/researchers working on both
areas
But not so many on ADMI

Substantial interaction and integration?



What?
How?
Where to Go

What are the directions of ADMI?

Foundation of agent-mining interaction & integration?



Methodologies?
Lifecycle, process and outcome aspects
Theoretical underpinnings?

A Long Way to Go






Position/survey papers
High quality papers that actually engage the
coupling of agents and data mining
Successful applications
Research groups
Submissions from everywhere
Research leaders
…, but Promising

Increasing researchers, papers, submissions,
and interests on ADMI




Special issue on IEEE IS
Edited book by Springer
Leading researchers and groups in AAMAS
and KDD are increasingly involving and
contributing to ADMI activities
There is a need
Let’s Closely Work Together
