Complete and Comprehensible Data Are Required

Haiku: interactive comprehensible data mining

This paper discusses a novel data mining system devised and developed at Birmingham, which attempts to provide a more effective data mining system. It ties in with the workshop goals in a number of different areas. The system tries to allow users to see the big picture and not get caught up in irrelevant detail too early; it uses perception-based approaches to data mining, and it uses interacti...

Comprehensible Knowledge Discovery: Gaining Insight from Data

Large databases are routinely being collected in government, science, business and medicine. A variety of techniques from statistics, signal processing, pattern recognition, machine learning, and neural networks have been proposed to help people understand the data by discovering predictive models of the data. However, research in data mining has not paid attention to the factors that make lear...

Learning Comprehensible Theories from Structured Data

This thesis is concerned with the problem of learning comprehensible theories from structured data and covers primarily classification and regression learning. The basic knowledge representation language is set around a polymorphically-typed, higherorder logic. The general setup is closely related to the learning from propositionalized knowledge and learning from interpretations settings in Ind...

Comprehensible and Interactive Visualizations of GIS Data in Augmented Reality

Most civil engineering tasks require accessing, surveying and modifying geospatial data in the field and referencing this virtual, geospatial information to the real world situation. Augmented Reality (AR) can be a useful tool to create, edit and update geospatial data representing real world artifacts by interacting with the 3D graphical representation of the geospatial data augmented in the u...
