Preface


Ubiquitous Data Mining(UDM) uses Data Mining techniques to extract useful
knowledge from data, namely when its characteristics reflect a World in Movement.
The goal of this workshop is to convene researchers (from both academia and in-
dustry) who deal with techniques such as: decision rules, decision trees, association
rules, clustering, filtering, learning classifier systems, neural networks, support vec-
tor machines, preprocessing, postprocessing, feature selection and visualization tech-
niques for UDM of distributed and heterogeneous sources in the form of a continuous
stream with mobile and/or embedded devices and related themes.
    This is the third workshop in the topic. We received 12 submissions that were
evaluated by 3 members of the Program Committee. The PC recommended accept-
ing 8 full papers and 2 Position Papers. We have a diverse set of papers focusing
from activity recognition, predicting taxis demand, trend mining to more theoretical
aspects of learning model rules from data streams. All papers deal with different
aspects of evolving data and/or distributed data.
    We would like to thank all people that make this event possible. First of all,
we thank authors that submit their work and the Program Committee for the work
in reviewing the papers, and proposing suggestions to improve the works. A final
Thanks to the IJCAI Workshop Chairs for all the support.
