The 2nd
International Conference on Inductive Modelling (ICIM’2008)
dedicated to the blessed memory of Academician Alexey Grigorievich
Ivakhnenko will be held in Kyiv on September 15-19, 2008. This year is
very remarkable for all those working in the inductive modelling field
in view of the 95th Anniversary from the Ivakhnenko’s birthday
and 40th anniversary from publication of the very first
Ivakhnenko’s article where the Group Method of Data Handling
(GMDH) was suggested. The initial Conference ICIM'2002 took place in
Lviv, Ukraine, in May 2002. Following the Conference, two Workshops was
held in Kyiv, Ukraine, in July 2005 and in Prague, Czech Republic, on
September 23-26, 2007. The series of conferences and workshops is the
only international forum that focuses on theory, algorithms,
applications, solutions, and new developments of data mining and
knowledge extraction technologies which originate from GMDH as a
typical inductive modelling method. Built on principles of
self-organization, inductive modelling has been developing and using in
several key areas and can be found in data mining technologies like
Polynomial Neural Networks, Adaptive Learning Networks, or Statistical
Learning Networks. More recent developments also utilize Genetic
Algorithms or the idea of Active Neurons and multileveled
self-organization to build models from data.
The motivation of this 2nd Conference is to analyze the
state-of-the-art of modelling methods that inductively generate models
from data, to discuss concepts of an automated knowledge discovery
workflow, to share new ideas on model validation and visualization, to
present novel applications in different areas, and to give inspiration
and background on how inductive modelling can contribute to solving the
current global challenges.
