MNG 2016 - Third SDM Workshop on Mining Networks and Graphs: A Big Data Analytic Challenge

Networks are emerging as a common language to model a wide variety of systems in life sciences, engineering, and social sciences. Real-world applications give rise to networks that are unstructured and often comprised of several components. Furthermore, they can support multiple dynamical processes that shape the network over time. The workshop will focus on processing and mining large-scale networks and is targeted for researchers and practitioners interested in data mining, machine learning, massive data analytics, network science, social networks and high performance computing in its broadest sense. Both theoreticians as well as practitioners, including system builders and individuals applying network analytic methods in application domains will be benefited from this workshop.
