However, in compiling a volume titled “DATA MINING: Foundations and Intelligent Paradigms: Volume 3: Medical, Health, Social, Biological and other Applications” we wish to introduce some of the latest developments to a broad audience of both specialists and non-specialists in this field.
It is demonstrated that spectral characteristics of steady-state visual
evoked potentials (SSVEPs) in a brain-computer interface (SSVEP-based BCI)
depend significantly on the stimulus parameters, such as color and frequency of its
flashing light. We postulate these dependencies can be used to improve the BCI
performance –...
When scientists analyze datasets in a search for underlying phenomena, patterns or causal factors, their first step is often an automatic or semi-automatic search for structures in the data. Of these feature-extraction methods, topological ones stand out due to their solid mathematical foundation. Topologically defined structures—as...
A new procedure for combined validation of learning models – built for
specifically uncertain data – is briefly described. The procedure, called the queue
validation, relies on a combination of resubstitution with the modified learn-andtest
paradigm. In the initial experiment [Burda and Hippe 2010] the developed...
This research volume is a continuation of our previous volume on intelligent
machines. We have laid the foundation of intelligent machines in SCI Series
Volume 70 by including the possible and successful applications of computational
intelligence paradigms in machines for mimicking the human behaviour.
Energy has been an inevitable component of human lives for decades. Recent rapid developments in the area require analyzing energy systems not as independent components but rather as connected interdependent networks. The Handbook of Networks in Power Systems includes the state-of-the-art developments that occurred in the power systems...

Diese Einführung in die moderne Audio- und Videotechnik ermöglicht Lesern mit technischem Grundverständnis einen leichten Einstieg - auch in komplexe Zusammenhänge. Der Autor vermittelt detailliertes Wissen, praxisnah und verständlich aufbereitet: von den Grundlagen der Ton- und Videotechnik über Abtastung und...
The concept of time has fascinated humanity throughout recorded history, and it remains one of the biggest mysteries in science and philosophy. Time is clearly one of the fundamental building blocks of the universe and thus a deeper understanding of nature at a fundamental level also demands a comprehension of time. Furthermore, the origins...

Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) are population-based, stochastic search algorithms that mimic natural evolution. Due to their ability to find excellent solutions for conventionally hard and dynamic problems within acceptable time, EAs have attracted interest from many researchers and practitioners in recent years. This book...
