Deformable Markov model templates for time-series pattern matching
Xianping Ge,Padhraic Smyth +1 more
TL;DR: A novel and flexible approach is proposed based on segmental semiMarkov models that provides a systematic and coherent framework for leveraging both prior knowledge and training data for automatically detecting specific patterns or shapes in time-series data.
Proceedings Article
Modeling General and Specific Aspects of Documents with a Probabilistic Topic Model
TL;DR: A new probabilistic model is proposed that tempers this approach by representing each document as a combination of a background distribution over common words, a mixture distribution over general topics, and a distribution over words that are treated as being specific to that document.
Book
Modeling the Internet and the Web: Probabilistic Method and Algorithms
TL;DR: This book discusses Commerce on the Web: Models and Applications, a Bayesian Perspective, which aims to explain the development of models and applications for knowledge representation in the rapidly changing environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Business applications of data mining
TL;DR: They help identify and predict individual, as well as aggregate, behavior, as illustrated by four application domains: direct mail, retail, automobile insurance, and health care.

The KDD process for extracting useful knowledge from volumes of data : Data mining and knowledge discovery in databases
TL;DR: Knowledge discovery in databases (KDD) and data mining as discussed by the authors is the emerging field of knowledge discovery in data and is the subject of this paper. But, whether the context is business, medicine, science, or government, the datasets themselves (in raw form) are of little direct value.
