#Scope and Theme

Humans can usually infer another intention. This ability to infer

is given names such as "nonverbal communication" and "thought

transference". To construct the relationship between humans and

the environment in which inferring intentions is possible,

sensor-network is necessary as for infrastructure. Humans can

learn each others habitual behavior over a long period of time

based on the five senses: touch, taste, hearing, sight, and

smell. Therefore, to construct a relationship between humans and

the environment, we need to incorporate these perceptive abilities

into the environment. The environment with these perceptive

abilities can be called "sensing-networks/sensor-network".

However most important function to construct the "thought

transference" relationship is "human behavior mining". Human

behavior mining consists of the following: collecting a huge

amount information on human behavior from various sources,

extracting the habitual behavior, and finally inferring intentions

based on this habitual behavior.

And to extract the habitual behavior the sensor data mining is

core technology. So, in this WS, we will discuss algorithms,

system architecture, and application concerned about sensor data

mining. Topics of interest (but not limited to):

#Any topic related to "sensor data mining"

* frequent pattern mining

* sequential data mining

* time series data mining

* graph mining

* path analysis

#Submission and Important Dates

Authors are invited to submit a paper of 4-8 pages describing

their original works. All papers should be formatted according to

the "IEEE transactions" as INSS main conference. Papers will be

peer-reviewed, and accepted papers will appear in the workshop

proceedings.
