Welcome to the Official Website of SCDM 2026

The Faculty of Computer Science and Information Technology, Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia  will host the 7th edition of SCDM International Conference from  4 to 5 August 2026.

This conference is dedicated to address the challenges in the areas of soft computing, data mining and data science, thereby presenting a consolidated view to the interested parties in the aforesaid fields. The conference looks for significant contributions to soft computing, data mining and data science in theoretical and practical aspects.

Publication

All accepted SCDM2026  papers will be published in Part of the Springer: Lecture Notes in Networks and Systems (LNNS)  book series ( https://www.springer.com/series/15179), and will be indexed by SCOPUS, DBLP, EI Compendex, INSPEC, SCImago, WTI AG and zbMATH .

The proceeding will be published before the conference date  and a softcopy of the proceeding will be given to all presenters during the conference date.

All previous SCDM conferences have been successfully held at various locations and all presented papers has been successfully published (before the actual conference date) in the Springer book series ( https://link.springer.com/conference/scdm) indexed by Scopus.
