Eight sections of this book span fundamental issues of knowledge discovery, classification and clustering, trend and deviation analysis, dependency derivation, integrated discovery systems, augumented database systems and application case studies. The appendices provide a list of terms used in the literature of the field of data mining and knowledge discovery in databases, and a list of online resources for the KDD researcher.

Clear and concise explanations to understand the learning paradigms. Chapters written by leading world experts.

Modern computer-based control systems are able to collect a large amount of information, display it to operators and store it in databases but the interpretation of the data and the subsequent decision making relies mainly on operators with little computer support. This book introduces developments in automatic analysis and interpretation of process-operational data both in real-time and over the operational history, and describes new concepts and methodologies for developing intelligent, state space-based systems for process monitoring, control and diagnosis. The book brings together new methods and algorithms from process monitoring and control, data mining and knowledge discovery, artificial intelligence, pattern recognition, and causal relationship discovery, as well as signal processing. It also provides a framework for integrating plant operators and supervisors into the design of process monitoring and control systems.

Advances in Data Mining Knowledge Discovery and Applications aims to help data miners, researchers, scholars, and PhD students who wish to apply data mining techniques. The primary contribution of this book is highlighting frontier fields and implementations of the knowledge discovery and data mining. It seems to be same things are repeated again. But in general, same approach and techniques may help us in different fields and expertise areas. This book presents knowledge discovery and data mining applications in two different sections. As known that, data mining covers areas of statistics, machine learning, data management and databases, pattern recognition, artificial intelligence, and other areas. In this book, most of the areas are covered with different data mining applications. The eighteen chapters have been classified in two parts: Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining Applications.

Advances in Machine Learning and Data Mining for Astronomy documents numerous successful collaborations among computer scientists, statisticians, and astronomers who illustrate the application of state-of-the-art machine learning and data mining techniques in astronomy. Due to the massive amount and complexity of data in most scientific disciplines

This book presents four different ways of theoretical and practical advances and applications of data mining in different promising areas like Industrialist, Biological, and Social. Twenty six chapters cover different special topics with proposed novel ideas. Each chapter gives an overview of the subjects and some of the chapters have cases with offered data mining solutions. We hope that this book will be a useful aid in showing a right way for the students, researchers and practitioners in their studies.

From basic data mining concepts to state-of-the-art advances, this book covers the theory of the subject as well as its application in a variety of fields. It discusses the incorporation of temporality in databases as well as temporal data representation, similarity computation, data classification, clustering, pattern discovery, and prediction. The book also explores the use of temporal data mining in medicine and biomedical informatics, business and industrial applications, web usage mining, and spatiotemporal data mining. Along with various state-of-the-art algorithms, each chapter includes detailed references and short descriptions of relevant algorithms and techniques described in other references.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of five workshops that were held in conjunction with the 25th Pacific-Asia Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining, PAKDD 2021, in Delhi, India, in May 2021. The 17 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 39 submissions.. The five workshops were as follows: Workshop on Smart and Precise Agriculture (WSPA 2021) PAKDD 2021 Workshop on Machine Learning for Measurement Informatics (MLMEIN 2021) The First Workshop and Shared Task on Scope Detection of the Peer Review Articles (SDPRA 2021) The First International Workshop on Data Assessment and Readiness for AI (DARAI 2021) The First International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence for Enterprise Process Transformation (AI4EPT 2021)

Since the initial work on constrained clustering, there have been numerous advances in methods, applications, and our understanding of the theoretical properties of constraints and constrained clustering algorithms. Bringing these developments together, Constrained Clustering: Advances in Algorithms, Theory, and Applications presents an extensive collection of the latest innovations in clustering data analysis methods that use background knowledge encoded as constraints. Algorithms The first five chapters of this volume investigate advances in the use of instance-level, pairwise constraints for partitional and hierarchical clustering. The book then explores other types of constraints for clustering, including cluster size balancing, minimum cluster size,and cluster-level relational constraints. Theory It also describes variations of the traditional clustering under constraints problem as well as approximation algorithms with helpful performance guarantees. Applications The book ends by applying clustering with constraints to relational data, privacy-preserving data publishing, and video surveillance data. It discusses an interactive visual clustering approach, a distance metric learning approach, existential constraints, and automatically generated constraints. With contributions from industrial researchers and leading academic experts who pioneered the field, this volume delivers thorough coverage of the capabilities and limitations of constrained clustering methods as well as introduces new types of constraints and clustering algorithms.

This two-volume set, LNAI 10234 and 10235, constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 21st Pacific-Asia Conference on Advances in Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining, PAKDD 2017, held in Jeju, South Korea, in May 2017. The 129 full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 458 submissions. They are organized in topical sections named: classification and deep learning; social network and graph mining; privacy-preserving mining and security/risk applications; spatio-temporal and sequential data mining; clustering and anomaly detection; recommender system; feature selection; text and opinion mining; clustering and matrix factorization; dynamic, stream data mining; novel models and algorithms; behavioral data mining; graph clustering and community detection; dimensionality reduction.
