Information and Complexity in Statistical Modeling (Information Science and Statistics)

Springer, 2007

No statistical model is "true" or "false," "right" or "wrong"; the models just have varying performance, which can be assessed. The main theme in this book is to teach modeling based on the principle that the objective is to extract the information from data that can be learned with suggested classes of...

Semantic Web: Concepts, Technologies and Applications

Springer, 2006

Although the Web is growing at an astounding pace, surpassing the 8 billion page mark, most pages are still designed for human consumption and cannot be processed by machines. Computers are used to display the information, but human intervention is still required to interpret the results. The Semantic Web unleashes a revolution of new possibilities...

Introduction to Constraint Databases

Springer, 2002

Constraint databases provide extra expressive power over relational databases in a largely hidden way at the data-storage or physical level. Constraints, such as linear or polynomial equations, are used to represent large sets in a compact manner. They keep the view of the database for a user or application programmer almost as simple as in...

Supervised and Unsupervised Ensemble Methods and their Applications (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2008

The rapidly growing amount of data, available from different technologies in the field of bio-sciences, high-energy physics, economy, climate analysis, and in several other scientific disciplines, requires a new generation of machine learning and statistical methods to deal with their complexity and heterogeneity. As data collections becomes...

Database Annotation in Molecular Biology: Principles and Practice

John Wiley & Sons, 2005

Two factors dominate current molecular biology: the amount of raw data is increasing very rapidly and successful applications in biomedical research require carefully curated and annotated databases. The quality of the data - especially nucleic acid sequences - is satisfactory; however, annotations depend on features inferred from the data...
