Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning and Data Mining

Computer scientists introduce innovative new work at annual conferences.  The Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning and Data Mining research community expands the state of the art at these, the field's most prestigious and selective conferences:

Artificial Intelligence (AI) researchers now predict that computers will be able to perform tasks that were once considered the prerogative of human beings.

They include tasks such as driving trucks, translating languages, writing high school essays, creating art, analyzing forensic evidence, and even work as a surgeon.  Although some of these goals are predicted to happen over several decades, AI is concerned with  principles and algorithms that allow researchers to make such bold predictions.  Current methods focus on variants of deep learning — such as convolutional nets, recurrent nets, autoencoders and adversarial networks — as well as on the methods of probabilistic graphical models.

Distance Based Pattern Driven Mining for Outlier Detection in High Dimensional Big Dataset

Detection of outliers or anomalies is one of the vital issues in pattern-driven data mining. Outlier detection detects the inconsistent behavior of individual objects. It is an important sector in the data mining field with several different applications such as detecting credit card fraud, hacking discovery and discovering criminal activities. It is necessary to develop tools used to uncover the critical information established in the extensive data. This paper investigated a novel method for detecting cluster outliers in a multidimensional dataset, capable of identifying the clusters and outliers for datasets containing noise. The proposed method can detect the groups and outliers left by the clustering process, like instant irregular sets of clusters (C) and outliers (O), to boost the results. The results obtained after applying the algorithm to the dataset improved in terms of several parameters. For the comparative analysis, the accurate average value and the recall value parameters are computed. The accurate average value is 74.05% of the existing COID algorithm, and our proposed algorithm has 77.21%. The average recall value is 81.19% and 89.51% of the existing and proposed algorithm, which shows that the proposed work efficiency is better than the existing COID algorithm.

Implementation of Data Mining Technology in Bonded Warehouse Inbound and Outbound Goods Trade

For the taxed goods, the actual freight is generally determined by multiplying the allocated freight for each KG and actual outgoing weight based on the outgoing order number on the outgoing bill. Considering the conventional logistics is insufficient to cope with the rapid response of e-commerce orders to logistics requirements, this work discussed the implementation of data mining technology in bonded warehouse inbound and outbound goods trade. Specifically, a bonded warehouse decision-making system with data warehouse, conceptual model, online analytical processing system, human-computer interaction module and WEB data sharing platform was developed. The statistical query module can be used to perform statistics and queries on warehousing operations. After the optimization of the whole warehousing business process, it only takes 19.1 hours to get the actual freight, which is nearly one third less than the time before optimization. This study could create a better environment for the development of China's processing trade.

User activity classification and domain-wise ranking through social interactions.

Twitter has gained a significant prevalence among the users across the numerous domains, in the majority of the countries, and among different age groups. It servers a real-time micro-blogging service for communication and opinion sharing. Twitter is sharing its data for research and study purposes by exposing open APIs that make it the most suitable source of data for social media analytics. Applying data mining and machine learning techniques on tweets is gaining more and more interest. The most prominent enigma in social media analytics is to automatically identify and rank influencers. This research is aimed to detect the user's topics of interest in social media and rank them based on specific topics, domains, etc. Few hybrid parameters are also distinguished in this research based on the post's content, post’s metadata, user’s profile, and user's network feature to capture different aspects of being influential and used in the ranking algorithm. Results concluded that the proposed approach is well effective in both the classification and ranking of individuals in a cluster.

Exploring distributed energy generation for sustainable development: A data mining approach

A comprehensive guideline for bengali sentiment annotation.

Sentiment Analysis (SA) is a Natural Language Processing (NLP) and an Information Extraction (IE) task that primarily aims to obtain the writer’s feelings expressed in positive or negative by analyzing a large number of documents. SA is also widely studied in the fields of data mining, web mining, text mining, and information retrieval. The fundamental task in sentiment analysis is to classify the polarity of a given content as Positive, Negative, or Neutral . Although extensive research has been conducted in this area of computational linguistics, most of the research work has been carried out in the context of English language. However, Bengali sentiment expression has varying degree of sentiment labels, which can be plausibly distinct from English language. Therefore, sentiment assessment of Bengali language is undeniably important to be developed and executed properly. In sentiment analysis, the prediction potential of an automatic modeling is completely dependent on the quality of dataset annotation. Bengali sentiment annotation is a challenging task due to diversified structures (syntax) of the language and its different degrees of innate sentiments (i.e., weakly and strongly positive/negative sentiments). Thus, in this article, we propose a novel and precise guideline for the researchers, linguistic experts, and referees to annotate Bengali sentences immaculately with a view to building effective datasets for automatic sentiment prediction efficiently.

Capturing Dynamics of Information Diffusion in SNS: A Survey of Methodology and Techniques

Studying information diffusion in SNS (Social Networks Service) has remarkable significance in both academia and industry. Theoretically, it boosts the development of other subjects such as statistics, sociology, and data mining. Practically, diffusion modeling provides fundamental support for many downstream applications (e.g., public opinion monitoring, rumor source identification, and viral marketing). Tremendous efforts have been devoted to this area to understand and quantify information diffusion dynamics. This survey investigates and summarizes the emerging distinguished works in diffusion modeling. We first put forward a unified information diffusion concept in terms of three components: information, user decision, and social vectors, followed by a detailed introduction of the methodologies for diffusion modeling. And then, a new taxonomy adopting hybrid philosophy (i.e., granularity and techniques) is proposed, and we made a series of comparative studies on elementary diffusion models under our taxonomy from the aspects of assumptions, methods, and pros and cons. We further summarized representative diffusion modeling in special scenarios and significant downstream tasks based on these elementary models. Finally, open issues in this field following the methodology of diffusion modeling are discussed.

The Influence of E-book Teaching on the Motivation and Effectiveness of Learning Law by Using Data Mining Analysis

This paper studies the motivation of learning law, compares the teaching effectiveness of two different teaching methods, e-book teaching and traditional teaching, and analyses the influence of e-book teaching on the effectiveness of law by using big data analysis. From the perspective of law student psychology, e-book teaching can attract students' attention, stimulate students' interest in learning, deepen knowledge impression while learning, expand knowledge, and ultimately improve the performance of practical assessment. With a small sample size, there may be some deficiencies in the research results' representativeness. To stimulate the learning motivation of law as well as some other theoretical disciplines in colleges and universities has particular referential significance and provides ideas for the reform of teaching mode at colleges and universities. This paper uses a decision tree algorithm in data mining for the analysis and finds out the influencing factors of law students' learning motivation and effectiveness in the learning process from students' perspective.

Intelligent Data Mining based Method for Efficient English Teaching and Cultural Analysis

The emergence of online education helps improving the traditional English teaching quality greatly. However, it only moves the teaching process from offline to online, which does not really change the essence of traditional English teaching. In this work, we mainly study an intelligent English teaching method to further improve the quality of English teaching. Specifically, the random forest is firstly used to analyze and excavate the grammatical and syntactic features of the English text. Then, the decision tree based method is proposed to make a prediction about the English text in terms of its grammar or syntax issues. The evaluation results indicate that the proposed method can effectively improve the accuracy of English grammar or syntax recognition.

PHD RESEARCH TOPIC IN DATA MINING

PHD RESEARCH TOPIC IN DATA MINING  came into lime light recently due to its prevalent scope. Mine, the word refers to extraction of something. Data Mining involves mining of information from the database and transforming it into more understandable structure. It is also known as Knowledge Discovery Database (KDD). Data Mining is used as the base in all major domains. It is also usual mentality of all kinds of people, to get what they want. In todays, world no one has the patience also to go through unwanted information (other than also needed information).

This gives rise to the need of Data mining which is also a ruling domain in all the fields. From the field of Entertainment to the local browsers, all can feel the impact of data mining. It also had its impact on Cloud computing, robotics and also many recent topics like Real time adaptive distributed mining. Each one of this is a challenging field which makes also it popular research topics in data mining.

Data-mining

Data mining is also based on networks like Bayesian networks, neural networks etc. Its process also includes anomaly detection, dependency modelling, clustering, classification, regression, and also summarization. Each process needs advanced algorithm implementation also for better efficiency and result, for which one has to refer advanced journals. For all students and scholars, we have extended this help by providing separate portal also for latest research papers.

Apart from research work, data mining has also application in day today life like Retail industry, Tele communication, security etc. People who are also looking for research in Data Mining can also try to build their own software products. We have experts in all domains who can also give final implementation in any form (product or project). Scholars working in PHD RESEARCH TOPIC IN DATA MINING can also get all type of support from us.

What Is Big Data?

Sherry Tiao | Senior Manager, AI & Analytics, Oracle | March 11, 2024

data mining research topics for phd

In This Article

Big Data Defined

The three “vs” of big data, the value—and truth—of big data, the history of big data, big data use cases, big data challenges, how big data works, big data best practices.

What exactly is big data?

The definition of big data is data that contains greater variety, arriving in increasing volumes and with more velocity. This is also known as the three “Vs.”

Put simply, big data is larger, more complex data sets, especially from new data sources. These data sets are so voluminous that traditional data processing software just can’t manage them. But these massive volumes of data can be used to address business problems you wouldn’t have been able to tackle before.

Volume The amount of data matters. With big data, you’ll have to process high volumes of low-density, unstructured data. This can be data of unknown value, such as X (formerly Twitter) data feeds, clickstreams on a web page or a mobile app, or sensor-enabled equipment. For some organizations, this might be tens of terabytes of data. For others, it may be hundreds of petabytes.
Velocity Velocity is the fast rate at which data is received and (perhaps) acted on. Normally, the highest velocity of data streams directly into memory versus being written to disk. Some internet-enabled smart products operate in real time or near real time and will require real-time evaluation and action.
Variety Variety refers to the many types of data that are available. Traditional data types were structured and fit neatly in a . With the rise of big data, data comes in new unstructured data types. Unstructured and semistructured data types, such as text, audio, and video, require additional preprocessing to derive meaning and support metadata.

Two more Vs have emerged over the past few years: value and veracity . Data has intrinsic value. But it’s of no use until that value is discovered. Equally important: How truthful is your data—and how much can you rely on it?

Today, big data has become capital. Think of some of the world’s biggest tech companies. A large part of the value they offer comes from their data, which they’re constantly analyzing to produce more efficiency and develop new products.

Recent technological breakthroughs have exponentially reduced the cost of data storage and compute, making it easier and less expensive to store more data than ever before. With an increased volume of big data now cheaper and more accessible, you can make more accurate and precise business decisions.

Finding value in big data isn’t only about analyzing it (which is a whole other benefit). It’s an entire discovery process that requires insightful analysts, business users, and executives who ask the right questions, recognize patterns, make informed assumptions, and predict behavior.

But how did we get here?

Although the concept of big data itself is relatively new, the origins of large data sets go back to the 1960s and ‘70s when the world of data was just getting started with the first data centers and the development of the relational database.

Around 2005, people began to realize just how much data users generated through Facebook, YouTube, and other online services. Hadoop (an open source framework created specifically to store and analyze big data sets) was developed that same year. NoSQL also began to gain popularity during this time.

The development of open source frameworks, such as Hadoop (and more recently, Spark) was essential for the growth of big data because they make big data easier to work with and cheaper to store. In the years since then, the volume of big data has skyrocketed. Users are still generating huge amounts of data—but it’s not just humans who are doing it.

With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), more objects and devices are connected to the internet, gathering data on customer usage patterns and product performance. The emergence of machine learning has produced still more data.

While big data has come far, its usefulness is only just beginning. Cloud computing has expanded big data possibilities even further. The cloud offers truly elastic scalability, where developers can simply spin up ad hoc clusters to test a subset of data. And graph databases are becoming increasingly important as well, with their ability to display massive amounts of data in a way that makes analytics fast and comprehensive.

Big Data Benefits

  • Big data makes it possible for you to gain more complete answers because you have more information.
  • More complete answers mean more confidence in the data—which means a completely different approach to tackling problems.

Big data can help you address a range of business activities, including customer experience and analytics. Here are just a few.

Product development Companies like Netflix and Procter & Gamble use big data to anticipate customer demand. They build predictive models for new products and services by classifying key attributes of past and current products or services and modeling the relationship between those attributes and the commercial success of the offerings. In addition, P&G uses data and analytics from focus groups, social media, test markets, and early store rollouts to plan, produce, and launch new products.
Predictive maintenance Factors that can predict mechanical failures may be deeply buried in structured data, such as the year, make, and model of equipment, as well as in unstructured data that covers millions of log entries, sensor data, error messages, and engine temperature. By analyzing these indications of potential issues before the problems happen, organizations can deploy maintenance more cost effectively and maximize parts and equipment uptime.
Customer experience The race for customers is on. A clearer view of customer experience is more possible now than ever before. Big data enables you to gather data from social media, web visits, call logs, and other sources to improve the interaction experience and maximize the value delivered. Start delivering personalized offers, reduce customer churn, and handle issues proactively.
Fraud and compliance When it comes to security, it’s not just a few rogue hackers—you’re up against entire expert teams. Security landscapes and compliance requirements are constantly evolving. Big data helps you identify patterns in data that indicate fraud and aggregate large volumes of information to make regulatory reporting much faster.
Machine learning Machine learning is a hot topic right now. And data—specifically big data—is one of the reasons why. We are now able to teach machines instead of program them. The availability of big data to train machine learning models makes that possible.
Operational efficiency Operational efficiency may not always make the news, but it’s an area in which big data is having the most impact. With big data, you can analyze and assess production, customer feedback and returns, and other factors to reduce outages and anticipate future demands. Big data can also be used to improve decision-making in line with current market demand.
Drive innovation Big data can help you innovate by studying interdependencies among humans, institutions, entities, and process and then determining new ways to use those insights. Use data insights to improve decisions about financial and planning considerations. Examine trends and what customers want to deliver new products and services. Implement dynamic pricing. There are endless possibilities.

  • New ways you can use your data
  • Ways the competition could be innovating
  • Benefits and challenges of different use cases

While big data holds a lot of promise, it is not without its challenges.

First, big data is…big. Although new technologies have been developed for data storage, data volumes are doubling in size about every two years. Organizations still struggle to keep pace with their data and find ways to effectively store it.

But it’s not enough to just store the data. Data must be used to be valuable and that depends on curation. Clean data, or data that’s relevant to the client and organized in a way that enables meaningful analysis, requires a lot of work. Data scientists spend 50 to 80 percent of their time curating and preparing data before it can actually be used.

Finally, big data technology is changing at a rapid pace. A few years ago, Apache Hadoop was the popular technology used to handle big data. Then Apache Spark was introduced in 2014. Today, a combination of the two frameworks appears to be the best approach. Keeping up with big data technology is an ongoing challenge.

Discover more big data resources:

Big data gives you new insights that open up new opportunities and business models. Getting started involves three key actions:

1.  Integrate Big data brings together data from many disparate sources and applications. Traditional data integration mechanisms, such as extract, transform, and load (ETL) generally aren’t up to the task. It requires new strategies and technologies to analyze big data sets at terabyte, or even petabyte, scale.

During integration, you need to bring in the data, process it, and make sure it’s formatted and available in a form that your business analysts can get started with.

2.  Manage Big data requires storage. Your storage solution can be in the cloud, on premises, or both. You can store your data in any form you want and bring your desired processing requirements and necessary process engines to those data sets on an on-demand basis. Many people choose their storage solution according to where their data is currently residing. The cloud is gradually gaining popularity because it supports your current compute requirements and enables you to spin up resources as needed.

3.  Analyze Your investment in big data pays off when you analyze and act on your data. Get new clarity with a visual analysis of your varied data sets. Explore the data further to make new discoveries. Share your findings with others. Build data models with machine learning and artificial intelligence. Put your data to work.

To help you on your big data journey, we’ve put together some key best practices for you to keep in mind. Here are our guidelines for building a successful big data foundation.

Align big data with specific business goals More extensive data sets enable you to make new discoveries. To that end, it is important to base new investments in skills, organization, or infrastructure with a strong business-driven context to guarantee ongoing project investments and funding. To determine if you are on the right track, ask how big data supports and enables your top business and IT priorities. Examples include understanding how to filter web logs to understand ecommerce behavior, deriving sentiment from social media and customer support interactions, and understanding statistical correlation methods and their relevance for customer, product, manufacturing, and engineering data.
Ease skills shortage with standards and governance One of the biggest obstacles to benefiting from your investment in big data is a skills shortage. You can mitigate this risk by ensuring that big data technologies, considerations, and decisions are added to your IT governance program. Standardizing your approach will allow you to manage costs and leverage resources. Organizations implementing big data solutions and strategies should assess their skill requirements early and often and should proactively identify any potential skill gaps. These can be addressed by training/cross-training existing resources, hiring new resources, and leveraging consulting firms.
Optimize knowledge transfer with a center of excellence Use a center of excellence approach to share knowledge, control oversight, and manage project communications. Whether big data is a new or expanding investment, the soft and hard costs can be shared across the enterprise. Leveraging this approach can help increase big data capabilities and overall information architecture maturity in a more structured and systematic way.
Top payoff is aligning unstructured with structured data

It is certainly valuable to analyze big data on its own. But you can bring even greater business insights by connecting and integrating low density big data with the structured data you are already using today.

Whether you are capturing customer, product, equipment, or environmental big data, the goal is to add more relevant data points to your core master and analytical summaries, leading to better conclusions. For example, there is a difference in distinguishing all customer sentiment from that of only your best customers. Which is why many see big data as an integral extension of their existing business intelligence capabilities, data warehousing platform, and information architecture.

Keep in mind that the big data analytical processes and models can be both human- and machine-based. Big data analytical capabilities include statistics, spatial analysis, semantics, interactive discovery, and visualization. Using analytical models, you can correlate different types and sources of data to make associations and meaningful discoveries.

Plan your discovery lab for performance

Discovering meaning in your data is not always straightforward. Sometimes we don’t even know what we’re looking for. That’s expected. Management and IT needs to support this “lack of direction” or “lack of clear requirement.”

At the same time, it’s important for analysts and data scientists to work closely with the business to understand key business knowledge gaps and requirements. To accommodate the interactive exploration of data and the experimentation of statistical algorithms, you need high-performance work areas. Be sure that sandbox environments have the support they need—and are properly governed.

Align with the cloud operating model Big data processes and users require access to a broad array of resources for both iterative experimentation and running production jobs. A big data solution includes all data realms including transactions, master data, reference data, and summarized data. Analytical sandboxes should be created on demand. Resource management is critical to ensure control of the entire data flow including pre- and post-processing, integration, in-database summarization, and analytical modeling. A well-planned private and public cloud provisioning and security strategy plays an integral role in supporting these changing requirements.

Study Illuminates Previously Unknown Ocean Mercury Pathway

  • Human Health
  • Oceanography

In early May, the neurotoxic effects of the heavy metal mercury made news when outlets reported that 2024 U.S. presidential candidate  Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said in 2012 that he experienced cognitive issues such as memory loss due to mercury poisoning , likely from a diet heavy in tuna. 

Now, a new study from researchers at UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography finds that a poorly understood,  highly toxic form of mercury, called dimethylmercury, may be a significant source of monomethylmercury off the California coast. Monomethylmercury is the form known to accumulate in seafood and sicken people.  

The findings, published June 7 in  Environmental Science and Technology , are an essential step toward mapping the sources of monomethylmercury in the oceans. Understanding the sources of the compound is also key to predicting how quickly concentrations of the toxin might decline in marine food webs if  human activities that release mercury , such as burning coal and artisanal gold mining, are curtailed. 

“Our predictions for the future are only as good as our understanding of the system, and we still have a lot to learn,” said Hannah Adams, a Scripps PhD candidate studying chemical oceanography and lead author of the study. 

The National Science Foundation-supported research was undertaken as part of  Scripps’ newly reestablished Center for Oceans and Human Health , which has understanding how contaminants like methylmercury bioaccumulate in marine food webs as one of its three main goals.

Not only is monomethylmercury a potent neurotoxin, but it is very difficult for most organisms to get rid of once it enters their system. This means organisms accumulate mercury over the course of their lives and pass it on to any predator that consumes them. Through a process known as biomagnification, marine predators such as tuna, swordfish, sharks and dolphins can contain monomethylmercury levels up to 10 million times what is found in seawater. If humans eat too many large predatory ocean fish, they can begin to experience  neurological symptoms including tremors, memory loss and a lack of coordination . Such neurotoxic effects are also why people who are pregnant or breastfeeding are  advised to avoid eating certain ocean fish during pregnancy, as mercury can damage the baby's developing brain and nervous system.

The majority of the mercury that enters the oceans comes from humans. Industrial activities including coal burning, cement production, production of metals such as aluminum and copper, as well as  artisanal gold mining release vaporized mercury into the atmosphere. Once in the atmosphere, mercury circulates until it is deposited back on Earth’s surface, often along with rain. The mercury that falls into the ocean is in an inorganic form that is not readily absorbed by living things. But bacteria can transform some of this inorganic mercury into the dangerous organic form of monomethylmercury, which can then enter the marine food web. 

It’s unclear exactly how, but chemical or biological processes also turn some of the monomethylmercury in the ocean into another of mercury’s organic forms: dimethylmercury. This compound is also a neurotoxin — just a few drops through a latex glove killed chemist  Karen Wetterhahn in 1997 — but it’s not known if it bioaccumulates the way monomethylmercury does. Previously, most researchers assumed dimethylmercury was a minor player in marine mercury cycling, but this was largely because it had not received much research attention. There have been fewer than 1,000 reported measurements of marine dimethylmercury globally, but one study estimated that some  30-80% of the organic mercury in the oceans exists in the form of dimethylmercury. 

A portion of the various types of mercury in the ocean ends up sinking to the seafloor, which, in aggregate, means mercury concentrations are generally higher in deeper waters.  Prior   research conducted off the coast of California has shown that the region’s prolific  coastal upwelling , which brings nutrient-rich deep water to the surface and fuels marine productivity, also carries various types of mercury, including dimethylmercury, to the ocean surface.   

Adams and Scripps associate professor and marine biogeochemist Amina Schartup sought to understand how mercury cycles through the oceans and what controls the chemical transformations that enable its accumulation in food webs. To do this, they decided to follow a parcel of upwelled, mercury-laden water once it reached the sea surface to see how the concentrations of different types of mercury changed over time. 

In the summer of 2021, Adams and other scientists went to sea on a research vessel as part of the  California Current Ecosystem Long-Term Ecological Research project. The team followed two parcels of upwelled water from the coast off California’s Monterey Bay out to sea for 11 days each, taking water samples as they went. Adams, Schartup, and their collaborators then analyzed those water samples for concentrations of mercury’s various chemical forms.

The researchers confirmed that coastal upwelling off the California coast is associated with elevated mercury levels, including significant quantities of dimethylmercury. Specifically, they found that the recently upwelled waters contained 59% more total mercury (all types combined) and 69% more dimethylmercury than water that had spent more time at the surface. But the team also found that dimethylmercury declined as the upwelled water parcels drifted at the surface, while monomethylmercury concentrations remained relatively constant. 

“This was surprising because we would expect both types of mercury to decline at similar rates,” said Adams. “We hypothesized that maybe dimethylmercury is keeping monomethylmercury concentrations stable, because dimethylmercury can transform into monomethylmercury through degradation.”

Some of this degradation is caused by sunlight, but Adams said this process likely only accounts for a fraction of the degradation they observed, leaving the other mechanisms in play unexplained.

To explore their hypothesis, the researchers created a computer model informed by their newly collected data to simulate the transformations between different types of mercury and how those concentrations changed over time. The simulations from the model suggested that the degradation of dimethylmercury supplied 61% of the monomethylmercury in the surface waters. 

“Researchers tend to think that the mercury that gets into fish only comes from the transformation of inorganic mercury by bacteria, but we show that dimethylmercury is likely a significant source off the coast of California,” said Schartup. “Dimethylmercury is important and needs to be better understood.” 

Such an improved understanding could help predict how mercury levels in sea life might respond to reduced emissions of the heavy metal or to climate change, which could supercharge upwelling and send even more mercury into surface waters.

“We may need to understand the relationship between these two types of organic mercury to get a realistic expectation of the time lag between something like lowering mercury emissions and seeing a reduction in mercury levels in seafood,” said Schartup. 

Schartup said answering these questions feeds directly into one of her major goals for her project at the Scripps Center for Oceans and Human Health: Creating an improved global model of mercury cycling that can be used to study the impacts of different climate change scenarios on the neurotoxin. Part of the project will also involve further exploring the link between upwelling, biological productivity, and mercury levels in marine life. 

In addition to Adams and Schartup, Carl Lamborg and Xinyun Cui of UC Santa Cruz co-authored the study.
