Prof. Andreas Krause wins ACM SIGKDD Test of Time award
Prof. Andreas Krause and five further authors were honoured with lifetime achievement in their approach to outbreak detection, featured in their research paper "Cost-Effective Outbreak Detection in Networks".
The SIGKDD Test of Time award recognises outstanding papers from past KDD conferences beyond the last decade that have had an important impact on the data mining research community. Since its debut at KDD 2007, the paper has been cited in more than 1'800 peer-reviewed papers, and has stood the test of time.
The award was received in Anchorage, Alaska, USA, at the KDD conference 2019. KDD is the premier interdisciplinary data science conference which awards top prizes to research teams from academic and industry organisations.
