Book excerpt: The Internet of Things (IoT) has attracted much attention from society, industry and academia as a promising technology that can enhance day to day activities, and the creation of new business models, products and services, and serve as a broad source of research topics and ideas. A future digital society is envisioned, composed of numerous wireless connected sensors and devices. Driven by huge demand, the massive IoT (mIoT) or massive machine type communication (mMTC) has been identified as one of the three main communication scenarios for 5G. In addition to connectivity, computing and storage and data management are also long-standing issues for low-cost devices and sensors. The book is a collection of outstanding technical research and industrial papers covering new research results, with a wide range of features within the 5G-and-beyond framework. It provides a range of discussions of the major research challenges and achievements within this topic.
Download or read book Between Humanities and the Digital written by Patrik Svensson and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2015-05-22 with total page 589 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars from a range of disciplines offer an expansive vision of the intersections between new information technologies and the humanities. Between Humanities and the Digital offers an expansive vision of how the humanities engage with digital and information technology, providing a range of perspectives on a quickly evolving, contested, and exciting field. It documents the multiplicity of ways that humanities scholars have turned increasingly to digital and information technology as both a scholarly tool and a cultural object in need of analysis. The contributors explore the state of the art in digital humanities from varied disciplinary perspectives, offer a sample of digitally inflected work that ranges from an analysis of computational literature to the collaborative development of a “Global Middle Ages” humanities platform, and examine new models for knowledge production and infrastructure. Their contributions show not only that the digital has prompted the humanities to move beyond traditional scholarly horizons, but also that the humanities have pushed the digital to become more than a narrowly technical application.

Download or read book Lecture Notes in Data Mining written by Michael W. Berry and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2006 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The continual explosion of information technology and the need for better data collection and management methods has made data mining an even more relevant topic of study. Books on data mining tend to be either broad and introductory or focus on some very specific technical aspect of the field. This book is a series of seventeen edited OC student-authored lecturesOCO which explore in depth the core of data mining (classification, clustering and association rules) by offering overviews that include both analysis and insight. The initial chapters lay a framework of data mining techniques by explaining some of the basics such as applications of Bayes Theorem, similarity measures, and decision trees. Before focusing on the pillars of classification, clustering and association rules, the book also considers alternative candidates such as point estimation and genetic algorithms. The book''s discussion of classification includes an introduction to decision tree algorithms, rule-based algorithms (a popular alternative to decision trees) and distance-based algorithms. Five of the lecture-chapters are devoted to the concept of clustering or unsupervised classification. The functionality of hierarchical and partitional clustering algorithms is also covered as well as the efficient and scalable clustering algorithms used in large databases. The concept of association rules in terms of basic algorithms, parallel and distributive algorithms and advanced measures that help determine the value of association rules are discussed. The final chapter discusses algorithms for spatial data mining. Sample Chapter(s). Chapter 1: Point Estimation Algorithms (397 KB). Contents: Point Estimation Algorithms; Applications of Bayes Theorem; Similarity Measures; Decision Trees; Genetic Algorithms; Classification: Distance Based Algorithms; Decision Tree-Based Algorithms; Covering (Rule-Based) Algorithms; Clustering: An Overview; Clustering Hierarchical Algorithms; Clustering Partitional Algorithms; Clustering: Large Databases; Clustering Categorical Attributes; Association Rules: An Overview; Association Rules: Parallel and Distributed Algorithms; Association Rules: Advanced Techniques and Measures; Spatial Mining: Techniques and Algorithms.
