information from it, store it, transmit it, and represent it, intelligent
technologies and applications are needed. The International Conference on
Intelligent Data Science Technologies and Applications (IDSTA) is a peer
reviewed conference that will advance the Data Science field by giving an
opportunity for researchers, engineers, and practitioners to present their
latest findings in the field. It will also invite key persons in the field to
share their current knowledge and their future expectations for the field.
