Data Science Applied To Discover Ancient Minoan-Indus Valley Trade Routes Implied By Commonweight Measures, Peter Revesz Jan 2022

Data Science Applied To Discover Ancient Minoan-Indus Valley Trade Routes Implied By Commonweight Measures, Peter Revesz

CSE Conference and Workshop Papers

This paper applies data mining of weight measures to discover possible long-distance trade routes among Bronze Age civilizations from the Mediterranean area to India. As a result, a new northern route via the Black Sea is discovered between the Minoan and the Indus Valley civilizations. This discovery enhances the growing set of evidence for a strong and vibrant connection among Bronze Age civilizations.


Data Mining Of Protein Databases, Christopher Assi Jul 2012

Data Mining Of Protein Databases, Christopher Assi

Department of Computer Science and Engineering: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

Data mining of protein databases poses special challenges because many protein databases are non-relational whereas most data mining and machine learning algorithms assume the input data to be a relational database. Protein databases are non-relational mainly because they often contain set data types. We developed new data mining algorithms that can restructure non-relational protein databases so that they become relational and amenable for various data mining and machine learning tools. We applied the new restructuring algorithms to a pancreatic protein database. After the restructuring, we also applied two classification methods, such as decision tree and SVM classifiers and compared their …
