Data, Information, And Knowledge In The Context Of Sils, Michael A. Zang, Jens G. Pohl Sep 2002

Data, Information, And Knowledge In The Context Of Sils, Michael A. Zang, Jens G. Pohl

Collaborative Agent Design (CAD) Research Center

Data, information, and knowledge are becoming increasingly common terms in the literature of the software industry. This terminology originated some time ago in the disciplines of cognitive science and artificial intelligence to reference three closely related but distinct concepts. Traditionally, mainstream software engineering has lumped all three concepts together as data and has only recently begun to distinguish between them. Unfortunately, the popular desire to distinguish between data, information, and knowledge within the mainstream has blurred the individual meanings of the words to the point where there is no longer a clear-cut distinction between them for most people. This problem …

Fast, Resolution-Consistent Spatial Prediction Of Global Processes From Satellite Data, Hsin-Cheng Huang, Noel A. Cressie, John Gabrosek Jan 2002

Fast, Resolution-Consistent Spatial Prediction Of Global Processes From Satellite Data, Hsin-Cheng Huang, Noel A. Cressie, John Gabrosek

Faculty of Informatics - Papers (Archive)

Polar orbiting satellites remotely sense the earth and its atmosphere, producing datasets that give daily global coverage. For any given day, the data are many and measured at spatially irregular locations. Our goal in this article is to predict values that are spatially regular at different resolutions; such values are often used as input to general circulation models (GCMs) and the like. Not only do we wish to predict optimally, but because data acquisition is relentless, our algorithm must also process the data very rapidly. This article applies a multiresolution autoregressive tree-structured model, and presents a new statistical prediction methodology …


Techniques To Explore Time-Related Correlation In Large Datasets, Sumeet Dua Jan 2002

Techniques To Explore Time-Related Correlation In Large Datasets, Sumeet Dua

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

The next generation of database management and computing systems will be significantly complex with data distributed both in functionality and operation. The complexity arises, at least in part, due to data types involved and types of information request rendered by the database user. Time sequence databases are generated in many practical applications. Detecting similar sequences and subsequences within these databases is an important research area and has generated lot of interest recently. Previous studies in this area have concentrated on calculating similitude between (sub)sequences of equal sizes. The question of unequal sized (sub)sequence comparison to report similitude has been an …
