  1. 1. Predictive Techniques and Methods for Decision Support in Situations with Poor Data Quality

    Author : Rikard König; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Rule Extraction; Genetic Programming; Uncertainty estimation; Machine Learning; Artificial Neural Networks; Data Mining; Information Fusion; Information technology; Informationsteknik; Teknik; Technology;

    Abstract : Today, decision support systems based on predictive modeling are becoming more common, since organizations often collect more data than decision makers can handle manually. Predictive models are used to find potentially valuable patterns in the data, or to predict the outcome of some event. READ MORE

  2. 2. Utilizing Diversity and Performance Measures for Ensemble Creation

    Author : Tuve Löfström; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ensemble Learning; Machine Learning; Diversity; Artificial Neural Networks; Data Mining; Information Fusion; Computer science; Datavetenskap; Teknik; Technology;

    Abstract : An ensemble is a composite model, aggregating multiple base models into one predictive model. An ensemble prediction, consequently, is a function of all included base models. Both theory and a wealth of empirical studies have established that ensembles are generally more accurate than single predictive models. READ MORE

  3. 3. Exploring Impacts of Secondary Information Use on Individual Privacy

    Author : Ali Padyab; Anna Ståhlbröst; Magnus Bergquist; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Information systems; Informationssystem;

    Abstract : Information collected from individuals via online social networks and Internet of things devices can be used by institutions and service providers for different business purposes to tailor and customize their services, which is defined as secondary use of information. Although the literature on secondary use is well developed, prior studies have largely focused on direct use of information such as those instances of information use that do not stem from data mining.

  4. 4. Everyday mining : Exploring sequences in event-based data

    Author : Katerina Vrotsou; Matthew Cooper; Anders Ynnerman; Kajsa Ellegård; Andrew S. Harvey; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Event-based data; activity diary data; event-sequences; interactive exploration; sequence identification; visual data mining; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Event-based data are encountered daily in many disciplines and are used for various purposes. They are collections of ordered sequences of events where each event has a start time and a duration. READ MORE

  5. 5. Mining Clinical Text in Cancer Care

    Author : Rebecka Weegar; Dalianis Hercules; Søren Brunak; Lilja Øvrelid; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; text mining; natural language processing; electronic health records; clinical text mining; information extraction; Computer and Systems Sciences; data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : Health care and clinical practice generate large amounts of text detailing symptoms, test results, diagnoses, treatments, and outcomes for patients. This clinical text, documented in health records, is a potential source of knowledge and an underused resource for improved health care. READ MORE
