Posters
The deadline to submit abstracts for this year's poster session has passed. Be sure to visit the poster pavilion during the conference to see the innovative ways your colleagues are using data mining.
Here's your chance to be recognized by the data mining community for your work in the field. Poster presentations provide an excellent opportunity for data mining practitioners to present their projects in a one-to-one setting and receive professional feedback from leaders in the field of data mining.
The M2009 Poster session is open to all data mining practitioners – from corporate or academic fields.
Posters will be located just outside of the Exhibit Hall and accessible throughout the conference. We request that authors make themselves available during dedicated Exhibit Hall hours to speak with attendees and answer questions. These hours are posted on the agenda.
