Data Mining represents a complex of technologies that are rooted in many disciplines: mathematics, statistics, computer science, physics, engineering, biology, etc., and with diverse applications in a large variety of different domains: business, health care, science and engineering, etc. Basically, data mining can be seen as the science of...

This publication offers and investigates efficient Monte Carlo simulation methods in order to realize a Bayesian approach to approximate learning of Bayesian networks from both complete and incomplete data. For large amounts of incomplete data when Monte Carlo methods are inefficient, approximations are implemented, such that learning remains...

Pioneers and leading researchers explain the theory and techniques of using targeted toxins experimentally. The highly successful use of the 192 IgG-saporin and ME20.4-saporin immunotoxins to lesion the cholinergic basal forebrain in order to model the behavior, anatomy, physiology, and pharmacology of Alzheimer's disease in animals is...

Internet Protocol (IP) telephony is changing the way business gets done, allowing multimedia messages such as voice, data, and video to be transmitted over standard routers,...

If you're like most small-business people, accounting is the last thing you want to spend lots of time on. That's where this handy...

The goal of this book is to provide an overview of the current state of knowledge of educational data mining (EDM). The primary goal of EDM is to use large-scale educational data sets to better understand learning and to provide information about the learning process. Although researchers have been studying human learning for over a...

These days, everyone seems to have a home page or a Web site. However, just because you create and publish a Web site doesn't mean anyone will visit it. Competition to attract visitors is extreme. The reality is that of the millions of Web pages out there, only a handful actually attract a steady readership; and these same Web pages are...
