This article investigates the evolution of data quality issues from traditional structured data managed in relational databases to Big Data. In particular, the paper examines the nature of the relationship between Data Quality and several research coordina ...
We consider MapReduce workloads that are produced by analytics applications. In contrast to ad hoc query workloads, analytics applications are comprised of fixed data flows that are run over newly arriving data sets or on different portions of an existing ...
Numerous research groups and other organizations collect data from popular data sources such as online social networks. This leads to the problem of data islands, wherein all this data is isolated and lying idly, without any use to the community at large. ...
Human behaviour plays an important role in the spread of infectious diseases, and understanding the influence of behaviour on the spread of diseases can be key to improving control efforts. While behavioural responses to the spread of a disease have often ...
With the emergence of brain research initiatives around the world, the need for standards to facilitate neuroscience data sharing is growing. A crucial first step will be to establish a minimal metadata standard that allows the discovery of and access to s ...
With the rapidly growing trend in urbanization, sustainable planning and management of urban engineering systems is gaining more importance. The evolution of engineering infrastructure that is related to transportation, built-space, energy, and environment ...
With technological advances, the sources of available information have become more and more diverse. Recently, a new source of information has gained growing importance: sensor data. Sensors are devices sensing their environment in various ways and reporti ...
This work considers our approach to robot motion control learning from the standpoint of multiple data sources. Our paradigm derives data from human teachers providing task demonstrations and tactile corrections for policy refinement and reuse. We contribu ...
We show numerically that the response of simple amorphous solids (elastic networks and particle packings) to a local force dipole is characterized by a lengthscale c that diverges as unjamming is approached as c ∼ (z - 2d)-1/2, where z ≥ 2d is the mean coo ...
Due to daylight variability, a design cannot be thoroughly assessed using single-moment simulations, which is why we need dynamic performance metrics like Daylight Autonomy and Useful Daylight Illuminance. Going one step further, the annual variation in pe ...
