Free Download Ubiquitous Knowledge Discovery: Challenges, Techniques, Applications by Michael May, Lorenza Saitta
English | PDF | 2010 | 261 Pages | ISBN : 3642163912 | 4.8 MB
Knowledge discovery in ubiquitous environments is an emerging area of research at the intersection of the two major challenges of highly distributed and mobile systems and advanced knowledge discovery systems. It aims to provide a unifying framework for systematically investigating the mutual dependencies of otherwise quite unrelated technologies employed in building next-generation intelligent systems: machine learning, data mining, sensor networks, grids, peer-to-peer networks, data stream mining, activity recognition, Web 2.0, privacy, user modelling and others. This state-of-the-art survey is the outcome of a large number of workshops, summer schools, tutorials and dissemination events organized by KDubiq (Knowledge Discovery in Ubiquitous Environments), a networking project funded by the European Commission to bring together researchers and practitioners of this emerging community. It provides in its first part a conceptual foundation for the new field of ubiquitous knowledge discovery – highlighting challenges and problems, and proposing future directions in the area of ‘smart’, ‘adaptive’, and ‘intelligent’ learning. The second part of this volume contains selected approaches to ubiquitous knowledge discovery and treats specific aspects in detail. The contributions have been carefully selected to provide illustrations and in-depth discussions for some of the major findings of Part I.

Free Download Transactions on Large-Scale Data- and Knowledge-Centered Systems II by Abdelkader Hameurlain, Josef Küng, Roland Wagner, Torben Bach Pedersen, A. Min Tjoa
English | PDF | 2010 | 150 Pages | ISBN : 364216174X | 3.7 MB
This special issue of TLDKS contains two kinds of papers. First, it contains a sel- th tion of the best papers from the 11 International Conference on Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery (DaWaK 2009), which was held from August 31 to S- tember 2, 2009 in Linz, Austria. Second, it contains a special section of papers on a particularly challenging domain in information retrieval, namely patent retrieval. Over the last decade, the International Conference on Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery (DaWaK) has established itself as one of the most important international scientific events within data warehousing and knowledge discovery. DaWaK brings together a wide range of researchers and practitioners working on these topics. The DaWaK conference series thus serves as a leading forum for discu- th ing novel research results and experiences within the field. The 11 International Conference on Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery (DaWaK 2009) cont- ued the tradition by disseminating and discussing innovative models, methods, al- rithms, and solutions to the challenges faced by data warehousing and knowledge discovery technologies.

Free Download The Topology of Planning Theories: A Systematization of Planning Knowledge by Meike Levin-Keitel , Lukas Behrend
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 123 Pages | ISBN : 3031378563 | 7.1 MB
The book discusses and organizes planning theories in a new way. Building on a foundation in scientific theory, both planning practice and the planning sciences are thereby classified and their inherent importance is organized in terms of knowledge generation. The core of the book is a knowledge-oriented systematization of planning knowledge in the form of planning theories, the topology of planning theories. The target audience of this work are academic as well as practical users from diverse disciplines with spatial impact, such as spatial planning, urban planning, regional planning, landscape planning, geography, urban studies, architecture and landscape architecture.

Free Download Advanced Techniques in Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining by Nikhil R. Pal, Lakhmi Jain
English | PDF | 2005 | 264 Pages | ISBN : 1852338679 | 6.4 MB
Data mining and knowledge discovery (DMKD) is a rapidly expanding field in computer science. It has become very important because of an increased demand for methodologies and tools that can help the analysis and understanding of huge amounts of data generated on a daily basis by institutions like hospitals, research laboratories, banks, insurance companies, and retail stores and by Internet users. This explosion is a result of the growing use of electronic media. But what is data mining (DM)? A Web search using the Google search engine retrieves many (really many) definitions of data mining. We include here a few interesting ones. One of the simpler definitions is: "As the term suggests, data mining is the analysis of data to establish relationships and identify patterns" [1]. It focuses on identifying relations in data. Our next example is more elaborate: An information extraction activity whose goal is to discover hidden facts contained in databases. Using a combination of machine learning, statistical analysis, modeling techniques and database technology, data mining finds patterns and subtle relationships in data and infers rules that allow the prediction of future results. Typical applications include market segmentation, customer profiling, fraud detection, evaluation of retail promotions, and credit risk analysis [2].

Free Download Medical Generalism, Now!: Reclaiming the Knowledge Work of Modern Practice
by Joanne Reeve
English | 2023 | ISBN: 103228529X | 200 pages | True PDF | 7.4 MB
Medical Generalism, Now! is a unique and timely consideration of generalist medical practice. With a focus on the knowledge work of clinical practice and by taking a whole healthcare system view, the book responds to a recognized need to strengthen generalist practice within modern healthcare delivery in both primary and secondary care settings. Through a series of creative provocations directed to consulting clinicians and their trainers/educators, service leaders and managers, and policy makers, readers are encouraged to challenge the orthodox view that generalism is an outdated ‘jack of all trades’ sub-set of clinical medicine delivering the ‘simpler’ aspects of medicine, with more complex issues requiring onward specialist referral. Case studies are used throughout to illustrate the challenges to be faced, accompanied by a description of the principles of generalist knowledge work needed to tackle the scenarios described and discussing the implications for practice and service redesign. Essential reading for clinicians, managers and policy makers across all healthcare settings, the book concludes with a call to action, synthesizing the learning from each chapter to define and describe delivery of the key changes needed.
