Abstract: Chinese researchers (including MSc/PhD students and some professors) often encounter great difficulties in writing and publishing research papers in competitive international conferences and journals. How can we quickly improve our paper writing skills? How can we avoid the most typical mistakes? Why do reviewers reject your papers? I will try to answer these questions in this talk. About the Speaker: Professor Charles X. Ling earned his Msc and PhD from the Department of Computer Science at Univ of Pennsylvania (Ivy League) in 1987 and 1989 respectively. Since then he has been a faculty member in Computer Science at University of Western Ontario. His main research areas include machine learning (theory, algorithms, and applications), cognitive modeling, and AI in general. He has published over 100 research papers in journals (such as Machine Learning, Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research, TKDE, and Cognition) and international conferences (such as IJCAI, ICML, and ICDM). He is also the Director of Data Mining Lab, leading data mining development in CRM, Bioinformatics, and the Internet. He has managed several data-mining projects for major banks and insurance companies in Canada. See http://www.csd.uwo.ca/faculty/cling for more info.
