Call for Tutorials

The 30th Pacific-Asia Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (PAKDD) will take place in Hong Kong, China, on June 9-12, 2026. We invite proposals for half-day (3 hours) tutorials from active researchers in both academia and industry who are experienced and engaging presenters. Ideally, a tutorial will cover the state-of-the-art research, development, and applications in a specific data mining domain, to stimulate and facilitate future work. Tutorials on interdisciplinary areas, novel and fast-growing directions, and significant applications are highly encouraged.
