Science, technology, and commerce increasingly recognise the importance of machine learning approaches for data-intensive, evidence-based decision making. This is accompanied by increasing numbers of machine learning applications and volumes of data. Nevertheless, the capacities of processing systems or human supervisors or domain experts remain limited in real-world applications. Furthermore, many applications require fast reaction to new situations, which means that first predictive models need to be available even if little data is yet available. Therefore approaches are needed that optimise the whole learning process, including the interaction with human supervisors, processing systems, and data of various kind and at different timings: techniques for estimating the impact of additional resources (e.g. data) on the learning progress; techniques for the active selection of the information processed or queried; techniques for reusing knowledge across time, domains, or tasks, by identifying similarities and adaptation to changes between them; techniques for making use of different types of information, such as labeled or unlabeled data, constraints or domain knowledge. Such techniques are studied for example in the fields of adaptive, active, semi-supervised, and transfer learning. However, this is mostly done in separate lines of research, while combinations thereof in interactive and adaptive machine learning systems that are capable of operating under various constraints, and thereby address the immanent real-world challenges of volume, velocity and variability of data and data mining systems, are rarely reported. Therefore, this workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from these different areas, and to stimulate research in interactive and adaptive machine learning systems as a whole. It continues a successful series of events at ECML PKDD
