This book introduces advanced undergraduate, graduate students and practitioners to statistical methods for ranking data. An important aspect of nonparametric statistics is oriented towards the use of ranking data. Rank correlation is defined through the notion of distance functions and the notion of compatibility is introduced to deal with incomplete data. Ranking data are also modeled using a variety of modern tools such as CART, MCMC, EM algorithm and factor analysis.

This book deals with statistical methods used for analyzing such data and provides a novel and unifying approach...

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference
proceedings of the 10th International Meeting on Computational
Intelligence Methods for Bioinformatics and Biostatistics, CIBB 2013, held in Nice, France in June 2013.
The 19 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and
selected from 35 submissions. The papers are organized in topical
sections on bioinformatics, biostatistics, knowledge based medicine, and data integration and analysis in omic-science.

This book contains the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Knowledge Management in Organizations (KMO) held in Santiago, Chile, during September 2014. The theme of the conference is "Knowledge Management to Improve Innovation and Competitiveness through Big Data."

The KMO conference brings together researchers and developers from industry and academia to discuss and research how knowledge management using big data can improve innovation and competitiveness.

The 39 contributions accepted for KMO 2014 were selected from 89 submissions and are organized in...

This research book presents key developments, directions, and challenges concerning advanced query processing for both traditional and non-traditional data. A special emphasis is devoted to approximation and adaptivity issues as well as to the integration of heterogeneous data sources.

The book will prove useful as a reference book for senior undergraduate or graduate courses on advanced data management issues, which have a special focus on query processing and data integration. It is aimed for technologists, managers, and developers who want to know more about emerging trends...

The book reviews methods for the analysis of astronomical datasets, particularly emphasizing very large databases arising from both existing and forthcoming projects, as well as current large-scale computer simulation studies. Leading experts give overviews of cutting-edge methods applicable in the area of astronomical data mining.

Innovating in Product/Process Development demonstrates how to achieve true innovation in product development, and how to launch a new product in the quickest and cheapest way.

The new approach to product development proposed in this book is based on the most recent research in the field. It suggests the integration of several tools that are currently only used independently, with the aim of stimulating the creation of innovative ideas in general, and specifically in the areas of product/process improvements and problem solving.

Innovating in Product/Process Development explores...

Data mining applications range from commercial to social domains, with novel applications appearing swiftly; for example, within the context of social networks. The expanding application sphere and social reach of advanced data mining raise pertinent issues of privacy and security. Present-day data mining is a progressive multidisciplinary endeavor. This inter- and multidisciplinary approach is well reflected within the field of information systems. The information systems research addresses software and hardware requirements for supporting computationally and data-intensive applications....
