Overview
The upcoming Workshop on Intelligible Data Mining models for Bioinformatics and Chemoinformatics (IntDMBC 2019) will take place as part of the IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (ICDM) 2019 in Beijing, China. This workshop aims to foster discussions and knowledge sharing among researchers on the importance of intelligible data mining models in scientific applications, particularly in the life sciences and chemistry.
Background & Relevance
Data mining has proven invaluable across various fields, yet its application in scientific domains often requires not just high accuracy but also interpretability. In areas like bioinformatics and chemoinformatics, understanding the underlying phenomena that generate data is crucial. This workshop seeks to address the need for symbolic data mining algorithms and techniques that can provide explanations, enhancing the ability of experts to interpret and utilize data effectively.
