Grassroots Movements and Social Change

Data mining (DM) consists of extracting interesting knowledge from re- world, large & complex data sets; and is the core step of a broader process, called the knowledge discovery from databases (KDD) process. In addition to the DM step, which actually extracts knowledge from data, the KDD process includes several preprocessing (or data preparation) and post-processing (or knowledge refinement) steps. The goal of data preprocessing methods is to transform the data to facilitate the application of a (or several) given DM algorithm(s), whereas the goal of knowledge refinement methods is to validate and refine discovered knowledge. Ideally, discovered knowledge should be not only accurate, but also comprehensible and interesting to the user. The total process is highly computation intensive. The idea of automatically discovering knowledge from databases is a very attractive and challenging task, both for academia and for industry. Hence, there has been a growing interest in data mining in several AI-related areas, including evolutionary algorithms (EAs). The main motivation for applying EAs to KDD tasks is that they are robust and adaptive search methods, which perform a global search in the space of candidate solutions (for instance, rules or another form of knowledge representation).

Pattern Recognition and Machine Intelligence

This volume provides a collection of sixteen articles containing review and new material. In a unified way, they describe the recent development of theories and methodologies in pattern recognition, image processing and vision using fuzzy logic, artificial neural networks, genetic algorithms, rough sets and wavelets with significant real life applications. The book details the theory of granular computing and the role of a rough-neuro approach as a way of computing with words and designing intelligent recognition systems. It also demonstrates applications of the soft computing paradigm to case based reasoning, data mining and bio-informatics with a scope for future research. The contributors from around the world present a balanced mixture of current theory, algorithms and applications, making the book an extremely useful resource for students and researchers alike. Contents: Pattern Recognition: Multiple Classifier Systems; Building Decision Trees from the Fourier Spectrum of a Tree Ensemble; Clustering Large Data Sets; Multi-objective Variable String Genetic Classifier: Application to Remote Sensing Imagery; Image Processing and Vision: Dissimilarity Measures Between Fuzzy Sets or Fuzzy Structures; Early Vision: Concepts and Algorithms; Self-organizing Neural Network for Multi-level Image Segmentation; Geometric Transformation by Moment Method with Wavelet Matrix; New Computationally Efficient Algorithms for Video Coding; Soft Computing for Computational Media Aesthetics: Analyzing Video Content for Meaning; Granular Computing and Case Based Reasoning: Towards Granular Multi-agent Systems; Granular Computing and Pattern Recognition; Case Base Maintenance: A Soft Computing Perspective; Real Life Applications: Autoassociative Neural Network Models for Pattern Recognition Tasks in Speech and Image; Protein Structure Prediction Using Soft Computing; Pattern Classification for Biological Data Mining. Readership: Upper level undergraduates, graduates, researchers, academics and industrialists.
