Book Classification and Recommendation for University Libraries using Grey Correlation and Bayesian Probability

In today’s information era, collaborative filtering algorithms are widely used and their distinct knowledge discovery techniques can effectively address numerous issues. However, conventional collaborative filtering algorithms encounter cold-start and data sparsity issues, which restrict their performance and accuracy. The study selected the multi-feature method to improve the traditional collaborative filtering algorithm, and introduced gray correlation calculation and Bayesian probability for user preference analysis. A learning resource recommendation model based on collaborative filtering was developed by comparing the target user’s characteristics with those of other users, calculating their similarity, selecting users with high similarity to the target user and forming a neighbor set. Using Bayesian probability and grey correlation to analyze user preferences in library systems can be well applied in book classification and recommendation problems in university libraries. The computing layer, which includes the collaborative filtering calculation stage and the group recommendation calculation stage, is the model’s main functional component. The smaller the value of mean absolute error, the higher the prediction accuracy of the model. The mean absolute error value of the multi-feature collaborative filtering algorithm was inferior to the traditional collaborative filtering algorithm, indicating that the classification accuracy of the former is higher than that of the latter. When the training set to test set ratio steadily became bigger, the mean absolute error value reached the lowest and smoothest point at 80%. In dataset A, the minimum mean absolute error values of multi-feature collaborative filtering and collaborative filtering were 0.765 and 0.809. Compared with traditional filtering algorithms, the mean absolute error value has decreased by 0.044. In dataset B, the mean absolute error values of multi-feature collaborative filtering and collaborative filtering were 0.796 and 0.836. Compared with traditional filtering algorithms, the mean absolute error value has decreased by 0.040. In dataset C, the minimum mean absolute error values of multi-feature collaborative filtering and collaborative filtering were 0.815 and 0.848. Compared with traditional filtering algorithms, the mean absolute error value has decreased by 0.033. When the accuracy was the highest; the mean absolute error value was the smallest at the grey correlation, which means that the technique improves the reliability of the recommendations compared with other methods. This means that the method has a positive impact on the accuracy of the recommendations compared to other methods. Grey correlation degree can comprehensively consider the interrelationships between multiple factors, handle uncertain and incomplete information, and explore potential user needs and behavior patterns. The implementation of the grey correlation degree has transformed the collaborative filtering algorithm into a group filtering algorithm, thereby enhancing its precision. The research on book classification and recommendation in university libraries, which enhances the group filtering algorithm, can address a range of issues such as improving classification accuracy, augmenting recommendation diversity, enhancing library management efficiency among others. This, in turn, enables more precise book recommendations to users.

Rule Mining Trends from 1987 to 2022: A Bibliometric Analysis and Visualization

Abstract Rule mining has emerged as a crucial technique in data mining and knowledge discovery, enabling the extraction of valuable insights and patterns from vast datasets. This has garnered significant attention from both academic and industrial communities. However, there is a lack of bibliometric and visualization research on rule mining, leading to an unclear delineation of research topics and trends in the field. To fill this gap, this paper provides a comprehensive and up-to-date bibliometric analysis of rule mining, covering 4524 publications published between 1987 and 2022. Using various metrics and visualization techniques, we examine the patterns, trends, and evolution of rule mining. The results show a sustained growth in rule mining research, with a significant increase in publication output in recent years, and its rapid expansion into new areas such as explainable artificial intelligence and privacy protection. While the majority of publications come from Asia, the National Natural Science Foundation of China emerges as the top funding agency in the field. We also identify highly productive authors and significant members of co-authorship networks, as well as the most influential publications and citation bursts. The need for international collaboration and the integration of diverse research perspectives is highlighted. Despite the progress in rule mining, several challenges still require further research, including scalability and efficiency, explainability, network security and privacy protection, and personalized and user-centered design. Overall, this paper provides a valuable roadmap for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners interested in rule-mining research.

Additive autoencoder for dimension estimation

Dimension reduction is one of the key data transformation techniques in machine learning and knowledge discovery. It can be realized by using linear and nonlinear transformation techniques. An additive autoencoder for dimension reduction, which is composed of a serially performed bias estimation, linear trend estimation, and nonlinear residual estimation, is proposed and analyzed. Compared to the classical model, adding an explicit linear operator to the overall transformation and considering the nonlinear residual estimation in the original data dimension significantly improves the data reproduction capabilities of the proposed model. The computational experiments confirm that an autoencoder of this form, with only a shallow network to encapsulate the nonlinear behavior, is able to identify an intrinsic dimension of a dataset with low autoencoding error. This observation leads to an investigation in which shallow and deep network structures, and how they are trained, are compared. We conclude that the deeper network structures obtain lower autoencoding errors during the identification of the intrinsic dimension. However, the detected dimension does not change compared to a shallow network. As far as we know, this is the first experimental result concluding no benefit from a deep architecture compared to its shallow counterpart.

A gradient boosting machine-based framework for electricity energy knowledge discovery

Knowledge discovery in databases (KDD) has an important effect on various fields with the development of information science. Electricity energy forecasting (EEF), a primary application of KDD, aims to explore the inner potential rule of electrical data for the purpose to serve electricity-related organizations or groups. Meanwhile, the advent of the information society attracts more and more scholars to pay attention to EEF. The existing methods for EEF focus on using high-techs to improve the experimental results but fail to construct an applicable electricity energy KDD framework. To complement the research gap, our study aims to propose a gradient boosting machine-based KDD framework for electricity energy prediction and enrich knowledge discovery applications. To be specific, we draw on the traditional knowledge discovery process and techniques to make the framework reliable and extensible. Additionally, we leverage Gradient Boosting Machine (GBM) to improve the efficiency and accuracy of our approach. We also devise three metrics for the evaluation of the proposed framework including R-square (R2), Mean Absolute Error (MAE), and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). Besides, we collect the electricity energy consumption (EEC) as well as meteorological data from 2013 to 2016 in New York state and take the EEC prediction of New York State as an example. Finally, we conduct extensive experiments to verify the superior performance of our framework and the results show that our model achieves outstanding results for the three metrics (around 0.87 for R2, 60.15 for MAE, and 4.79 for MAPE). Compared with real value and the official prediction model, our approach also has a remarkable prediction ability. Therefore, we find that the proposed framework is feasible and reliable for EEF and could provide practical references for other types of energy KDD.

A Comparative and Performance Analysis of Similarity Metrics in Recommender System Based on Hadoop Framework

With exponential growth of information available on web, there is a need for a personal assistance to customers for finding the best item out of the large set of items. There is also need for finding the best item having highest popularity. The personal assistance which will assist the user is the Recommender System. It is a software tool that uses knowledge discovery techniques to produce personalized recommendations. The majority of the recommendations are based on the machine learning algorithm and techniques which uses a standard data set for producing predictions. With tremendous growth of customers and items in the recent years, there is a key challenge for the recommendation system to produce quality recommendations based on the similarity of the users. There also lies a great challenge for the recommendation system to produce quality output when data set is huge, reduce latency, group users having similar interest and perform recommendations in seconds for millions of customers and products. Thus there is a need for new recommendation technologies which will produce quality output to users having similar tastes in a best possible manner. In this paper we present a comparative analysis of various similarity metrics used in recommendation system for clustering the users based on hadoop framework. The experimental results show that spearman rank correlation performs the best among the other similarity metrics based on three evaluation metrics.

Efficient Discovery of Partial Periodic Patterns in Large Temporal Databases

Periodic pattern mining is an emerging technique for knowledge discovery. Most previous approaches have aimed to find only those patterns that exhibit full (or perfect) periodic behavior in databases. Consequently, the existing approaches miss interesting patterns that exhibit partial periodic behavior in a database. With this motivation, this paper proposes a novel model for finding partial periodic patterns that may exist in temporal databases. An efficient pattern-growth algorithm, called Partial Periodic Pattern-growth (3P-growth), is also presented, which can effectively find all desired patterns within a database. Substantial experiments on both real-world and synthetic databases showed that our algorithm is not only efficient in terms of memory and runtime, but is also highly scalable. Finally, the effectiveness of our patterns is demonstrated using two case studies. In the first case study, our model was employed to identify the highly polluted areas in Japan. In the second case study, our model was employed to identify the road segments on which people regularly face traffic congestion.

A density estimation approach for detecting and explaining exceptional values in categorical data

In this work we deal with the problem of detecting and explaining anomalous values in categorical datasets. We take the perspective of perceiving an attribute value as anomalous if its frequency is exceptional within the overall distribution of frequencies. As a first main contribution, we provide the notion of frequency occurrence. This measure can be thought of as a form of Kernel Density Estimation applied to the domain of frequency values. As a second contribution, we define an outlierness measure for categorical values that leverages the cumulated frequency distribution of the frequency occurrence distribution. This measure is able to identify two kinds of anomalies, called lower outliers and upper outliers, corresponding to exceptionally low or high frequent values. Moreover, we provide interpretable explanations for anomalous data values. We point out that providing interpretable explanations for the knowledge mined is a desirable feature of any knowledge discovery technique, though most of the traditional outlier detection methods do not provide explanations. Considering that when dealing with explanations the user could be overwhelmed by a huge amount of redundant information, as a third main contribution, we define a mechanism that allows us to single out outstanding explanations. The proposed technique is knowledge-centric, since we focus on explanation-property pairs and anomalous objects are a by-product of the mined knowledge. This clearly differentiates the proposed approach from traditional outlier detection approaches which instead are object-centric. The experiments highlight that the method is scalable and also able to identify anomalies of a different nature from those detected by traditional techniques.

Efficient artificial intelligence techniques for inverse design and knowledge discovery in metamaterials

A new artificial-intelligence (AI) approach based on dimensionality reduction techniques for the design and knowledge discovery in metamaterial structures will be presented. It is shown that reducing the dimensionality of the response and design spaces by using a pseudoencoder can reduce the computation time by 2–3 orders of magnitude. In addition, using pruning techniques can simplify the trained algorithm to further reduce the computation time while providing simpler paths for relating input-output relationships for understanding the role of design parameters (i.e., knowledge discovery). It is also shown that this approach can enable an evolutionary design method in which the initial design can be evolved intelligently into an alternative with favorable specifications. The application of these AI approaches for both optical and acoustic metamaterials will be presented.

Generating Terrain Data for Geomorphological Analysis by Integrating Topographical Features and Conditional Generative Adversarial Networks

With the development of artificial intelligence techniques for geographical knowledge discovery, simulated terrain generation based on deep-learning algorithms has become one practical way to construct accurate terrain data. However, it is still necessary to discuss whether the simulated topographic data contain the characteristics of specific landforms and can support related geographical studies. Therefore, in this study, a deep learning-based model inspired by previous research is constructed to generate loess landform data. We analyzed the influence of inputting different topographic features on terrain generation and evaluated the similarity between the simulated and reference data. The results show that the deep learning-based model can generate simulated topographic data that include similar elevation and slope probability distributions to the reference data of the loess landform. In addition, the generated results may have inaccurate terrain details, which can be regarded as noise in some cases. This indicates that the selection of input features should be carefully considered. Finally, the simulated data can subsequently support landform and terrain research, especially with intelligence algorithms that require large sets of topographic data.

<p>Clustering is an important technique for data analysis and knowledge discovery. In the context of big data, the density-based clustering algorithm faces three challenging problems: unreasonable division of data gridding, poor parameter optimization ability and low efficiency of parallelization. In this study, a density-based clustering algorithm by using improve fruit fly optimization based on MapReduce (MR-DBIFOA) is proposed to tackle these three problems. Firstly, based on KD-Tree, a division strategy (KDG) is proposed to divide the cell of grid adaptively. Secondly, an improve fruit fly optimization algorithm (IFOA) which use the step strategy based on knowledge learn (KLSS) and the clustering criterion function (CFF) is designed. In addition, based on IFOA algorithm, the optimal parameters of local clustering are dynamically selected, which can improve the clustering effect of local clustering. Meanwhile, in order to improve the parallel efficiency, the density-based clustering algorithm using IFOA (MR-QRMEC) are proposed to parallel compute the local clusters of clustering algorithm. Finally, based on QR-Tree and MapReduce, a cluster merging algorithm (MR-QRMEC) is proposed to get the result of clustering algorithm more quickly, which improve the core clusters merging efficiency of density-based clustering algorithm. The experimental results show that the MR-DBIFOA algorithm has better clustering results and performs better parallelization in big data.</p> <p> </p>

A Statistical-Mining Techniques’ Collaboration for Minimizing Dimensionality in Ovarian Cancer Data

A feature is a single measurable criterion to an observation of a process. While knowledge discovery techniques successfully contribute to many fields, however, the extensive required data processing could hinder the performance of these techniques. One of the main issues in processing data is the dimensionality of the data. Therefore, focusing on reducing the data dimensionality through eliminating the insignificant attributes could be considered one of the successful steps for raising the applied techniques’ performance. On the other hand, focusing on the applied field, ovarian cancer patients continuously suffer from the extensive analysis requirements for detecting the disease as well as monitoring the treatment progress. Therefore, identifying the most significant required analysis could be a positive step to reduce the emotional and financial suffering. This research aims to reduce the data dimensionality of the ovarian cancer disease and highlight the most significant analysis using the collaboration of clustering techniques and statistical techniques. The research succeeded to identify twelve significant analysis out of forty-four with a total of fourteen significant attributes for ovarian cancer data.

Smart Competence Management Using Business Analytics with Fuzzy Predicates

Organizations consider human capital as one of their most important assets. Experts in the field have focused on the research and development of human talent management skills. At present, companies are giving high importance to the management of this intangible resource. Management by competencies and skills is basic in the selection and development of the most valuable asset the organization has: its human capital. A conceptual framework of the intelligent management of human capital and some more advanced knowledge discovery techniques are presented in this paper. A methodology for smart detection of core competencies based on fuzzy logic predicates and business analytics is proposed. The proposed methodology allows: (1) the evaluation of the importance of competencies, (2) the identification of competencies achievement level of each employee, (3) the identification of competencies with difficulties, (4) the identification of competencies that have influence on others, and (5) a hierarchization of the competencies to select the most appropriated for the employee recruitment plan. Furthermore, an analysis is proposed using knowledge discovery, which allows one to identify which competences have influence on a specific one. All of the above is useful to build an ideal profile for a position. A case study was carried out in order to show the implementation and interpretation of our proposal.

MapReduce Based Crow Search Adopted Partitional Clustering Algorithms For Handling Large Scale Data

Cluster analysis is the prominent data mining technique in knowledge discovery and it discovers the hidden patterns from the data. The K-Means, K-Modes and K-Prototypes are partition based clustering algorithms and these algorithms select the initial centroids randomly. Because of its random selection of initial centroids, these algorithms provide the local optima in solutions. To solve these issues, the strategy of Crow Search algorithm is employed with these algorithms to obtain the global optimum solution. With the advances in information technology, the size of data increased in a drastic manner from terabytes to petabytes. To make proposed algorithms suitable to handle these voluminous data, the phenomena of parallel implementation of these clustering algorithms with Hadoop Mapreduce framework. The proposed algorithms are experimented with large scale data and the results are compared in terms of cluster evaluation measures and computation time with the number of nodes.

Data Mining to Assess Organizational Transparency across Technology Processes: An Approach from IT Governance and Knowledge Management

Information quality and organizational transparency are relevant issues for corporate governance and sustainability of companies, as they contribute to reducing information asymmetry, decreasing risks, and improving the conduct of decision-makers, ensuring an ethical standard of organizational control. This work uses the COBIT framework of IT governance, knowledge management, and machine learning techniques to evaluate organizational transparency considering the maturity levels of technology processes applied in 285 companies of southern Brazil. Data mining techniques have been methodologically applied to analyze the 37 processes in four different domains: Planning and organization, acquisition and implementation, delivery and support, and monitoring. Four learning techniques for knowledge discovery have been used to build a computational model that allowed us to evaluate the organizational transparency level. The results evidence the importance of IT performance monitoring and assessment, and internal control processes in enabling organizations to improve their levels of transparency. These processes depend directly on the establishment of IT strategic plans and quality management, as well as IT risk and project management, therefore an improvement in the maturity of these processes implies an increase in the levels of organizational transparency and their reputational, financial, and accountability impact.
