An essential text for readers wishing to use data mining methods to cope with management and engineering design problems within a company, Data Mining: Concepts, Methods and Applications in Management and Engineering Design stands out from other data mining books by introducing in clear and simple ways how to use existing data mining methods to obtain effective solutions for a variety of management and engineering design problems. Organized in two parts, the first part is a primer that introduces data mining to those readers who are not familiar with it. This section of the book...

This volume focuses on the theory and practice of data stream management, and the novel challenges this emerging domain poses for data-management algorithms, systems, and applications. The collection of chapters, contributed by authorities in the field, offers a comprehensive introduction to both the algorithmic/theoretical foundations of data streams, as well as the streaming systems and applications built in different domains.

A short introductory chapter provides a brief summary of some basic data streaming concepts and models, and discusses the key elements of a generic...

Optimization techniques have been widely adopted to implement various data mining algorithms. In addition to well-known Support Vector Machines (SVMs) (which are based on quadratic programming), different versions of Multiple Criteria Programming (MCP) have been extensively used in data separations. Since optimization based data mining methods differ from statistics, decision tree induction, and neural networks, their theoretical inspiration has attracted many researchers who are interested in algorithm development of data mining.

"Optimization based Data Mining: Theory and...

A new unsupervised approach to the problem of Information Extraction by Text Segmentation (IETS) is proposed, implemented and evaluated herein. The authors' approach relies on information available on pre-existing data to learn how to associate segments in the input string with attributes of a given domain relying on a very effective set of content-based features. The effectiveness of the content-based features is also exploited to directly learn from test data structure-based features, with no previous human-driven training, a feature unique to the presented approach. Based on the...

Advance Praise for Indian Mujahideen: Computational Analysis and Public Policy "This book presents a highly innovative computational approach to analyzing the strategic behavior of terrorist groups and formulating counter-terrorism policies. It would be very useful for international security analysts and policymakers." Uzi Arad, National Security Advisor to the Prime Minister of Israel and Head, Israel National Security Council (2009-2011) "An important book on a complex security problem. Issues have been analysed in depth based on quality research. Insightful and well-balanced in...

Sentiment analysis will play a key role in intelligent information extraction from text corpora ranging from telephone transcripts recorded surreptitiously to opinions expressed openly about consumer goods, books and films for example. In between, we have sentiments expressed covertly or overtly in order to discover the price of financial instruments, to influence a voting public or numerous other contexts.

Sentiment analysis may yet turn out to be as big a challenge as machine translation, corpus-based lexicography, and information extraction were in their time. This is a truly...

This two volume set (CCIS 610 and 611) constitute the proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Information processing and Management of Uncertainty in Knowledge-Based Systems, IPMU 2016, held in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, in June 2016.

The 127 revised full papers presented together with four invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on fuzzy measures and integrals; uncertainty quantification with imprecise probability; textual data processing; belief functions theory and its applications;...
