Acceptance notification: 27 September 2019
Conference: 28 - 31, October 2019
Aims and Scope
WEPA is a new international forum for researchers in the area of design, analysis, experimental evaluation and engineering of algorithms for enumeration problems. The objective of the workshop is to gather researchers working in enumeration algorithms, including their applications in Biology, Data Mining, Logic, and Database. The goal is to present recent results, identify and explore directions for future research, and foster collaborations.
For this reason, along with the sessions for the presentation of established results, this year WEPA will introduce new sessions that are devoted to ideas, sketches, and open problems: hopefully this will put in touch senior researchers with junior researchers and graduate students to investigate problems of theoretical and practical interest. These new sessions will be informal, with no scheduled presentations, entirely devoted to the interactions among the participants. The workshop will be accommodated some rooms to allow space for the parallel working groups.
Submissions to WEPA should describe results in any area of enumeration problems and including, but not restricted to:
- Applications in Biology, Data Mining, Logic, and Database
- Approximate enumeration and counting
- Combinatorial enumeration and counting (hypergraph dualization, lattices, functional dependencies, etc)
- Input-sensitive algorithms
- Output-sensitive algorithms
Invited speakers
- David Avis (McGill University and Kyoto University)
- Serge Gaspers (The University of New South Wales, Australia)
- Takashi Horiyama (Saitama University, Japan)
- Koji Tsuda (Tokyo University, Japan)
Submissions and Proceedings
Contributors are invited to submit an extended abstract of at most 2 pages (excluding the references) to be submitted electronically using EasyChair at the link https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wepa2019. Invited papers and accepted contributions will be invited to contribute to a special issue in a journal.
