Knowledge and Information Visualization: Searching for Synergies (Lecture Notes in Computer Science)

Buy
This book presents current research and development work in the fields of knowledge visualization and information visualization. In addition to revised reviewed papers presented at an international workshop on Visual Artefacts for the Organization of Information and Knowledge held in Tübingen, Germany in May 2004, invited papers from leading experts are included to round off coverage of relevant aspects.

The 19 chapters presented together with an introductory overview are organized in topical sections on background, knowledge visualization, information visualization, visualizing knowledge and information for fostering learning and instruction, and knowledge-oriented organization of information for fostering information use.

Our present-day society is witnessing an explosion of information and knowledge and an increasing complexity of subject matter in many domains. Influenced by the changes in the amount and complexity of knowledge and information, as well as changes in requirements for coping effectively with increasingly complex tasks, a change in the culture of learning and working is taking place (e.g. Schnurer, Stark & Mandl, 2003). Traditional strategies of learning for comprehension and retention are no longer the central goals in learning and instruction. Learning content is often complex, ill-structured, represented in different information repositories, not pre-selected and pre-designed, and sometimes has to be searched for by the learners themselves (Rakes, 1996; http://stauffer.queensu.ca/inforef/tutorials/rbl/).

Advances in Image And Video Segmentation
Image and video segmentation is one of the most critical tasks of analysis which
the objective of extracting information (represented by data) from an image or a
sequence of images (video). In the last 40 years, this field has experienced significant
growth and progress, resulting in a virtual explosion of published information....

Advances in Research on Networked Learning (Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning Series)
Advances in Research on Networked Learning (Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning Series)

Networked learning is learning in which information and communications technology (ICT) is used to promote connections: between one learner and other learners; between learners and tutors; between a learning community and its learning resources. Networked learning is an area which has great practical and theoretical importance. It is a rapidly...

The Nested Universal Relation Database Model (Lecture Notes in Computer Science)
The Nested Universal Relation Database Model (Lecture Notes in Computer Science)

During the 1980's the flat relational model (relational model), which was initiated by Codd in 1970, gained immense popularity and acceptance in the market place. One of the main reasons for this success is that the relational model provides physical data independences i.e. changing the physical organization of the database does not...
