A novel ontology based type 2 diabetes risk analysis system framework is described, which allows the creation of global knowledge representation (ontology) and personalized modeling for a decision support system. A computerized model focusing on organizing knowledge related to three chronic diseases and genes has been developed in an ontological representation that is able to identify interrela...

Business data are subject to change by time or by the modifications of business rules. New knowledge needs to be extracted to reflect the most up to date situations hence periodic or occasional re-mining is essential. This paper proposes an active multidimensional association mining framework that incorporates with user preference ontology, which contains surrogate queries that represent freque...

Ontologies are critical sources of semantic information for many application domains. Hence, there are ontologies proposed and utilized for domains such as medicine, chemical engineering, and electrical energy. In this paper, we present an improved and extended version of a wind energy ontology previously proposed. First, the ontology is restructured to increase its understandability and covera...

This paper presents an Ontology-based Holonic Diagnostic System (OHDS) that combines the advantages of the holonic paradigm with multi-agent system technology and ontology design, for the organization of unstructured biomedical research into structured disease information. We use ontologies as ‘brain’ for the holonic diagnostic system to enhance its ability to structure information in a meaning...

Visualization is claimed as one of the essential “V’s” Big Data since it allows presenting data in a human-friendly way and is, therefore, stepping-stone for mining process. Visual analytics, turn, ensures knowledge discovery out through cognitive graphics filtering capabilities. But to be efficient, visualization analytics tools have consider other by handling large volumes, keeping up with gr...
