Advanced Topics in Information Retrieval
Information retrieval is the science concerned with the effective and efficient retrieval of documents starting from their semantic content. It is employed to fulfill some information need from a large number of digital documents. Given the ever-growing amount of documents available and the heterogeneous data structures used for storage, information retrieval has recently faced and tackled novel applications. In this book, Melucci and Baeza-Yates present a wide-spectrum illustration of recent research results in advanced areas related to information retrieval. Readers will find chapters on e.g. aggregated search, digital advertising, digital libraries, discovery of spam and opinions, informa...
Lessons from the Identity Trail
During the past decade, rapid developments in information and communications technology have transformed key social, commercial and political realities. Within that same time period, working at something less than internet speed, much of the academic and policy debates arising from these new and emerging technologies have been fragmented. There have been few examples of interdisciplinary dialogue about the potential for anonymity and privacy in a networked society. Lessons from the Identity Trail fills that gap, and examines key questions about anonymity, privacy and identity in an environment that increasingly automates the collection of personal information and uses surveillance to reduce ...
Privacy Technologies and Policy
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 5th Annual Privacy Forum, APF 2017, held in Vienna, Austria, in June 2017. The 12 revised full papers were carefully selected from 41 submissions on the basis of significance, novelty, and scientific quality. These selected papers are organized in three different chapters corresponding to the conference sessions. The first chapter, “Data Protection Regulation”, discusses topics concerning big genetic data, a privacy-preserving European identity ecosystem, the right to be forgotten und the re-use of privacy risk analysis. The second chapter, “Neutralisation and Anonymization”, discusses neutralisation of threat actors, privacy by design data exchange between CSIRTs, differential privacy and database anonymization. Finally, the third chapter, “Privacy Policies in Practice”, discusses privacy by design, privacy scores, privacy data management in healthcare and trade-offs between privacy and utility.
Handbook of Technical Communication
The Handbook of Technical Communication brings together a variety of topics which range from the role of technical media in human communication to the linguistic, multimodal enhancement of present-day technologies. It covers the area of computer-mediated text, voice and multimedia communication as well as of technical documentation. In doing so, the handbook takes professional and private communication into account. Special emphasis is put on technical communication by means of web 2.0 technologies and its standardization in system development. In summary, the handbook deals with theoretical issues of technical communication and its practical impact on the development and usage of text and speech technologies.
The Theory and Practice of Social Machines
Social machines are a type of network connected by interactive digital devices made possible by the ubiquitous adoption of technologies such as the Internet, the smartphone, social media and the read/write World Wide Web, connecting people at scale to document situations, cooperate on tasks, exchange information, or even simply to play. Existing social processes may be scaled up, and new social processes enabled, to solve problems, augment reality, create new sources of value, and disrupt existing practice. This book considers what talents one would need to understand or build a social machine, describes the state of the art, and speculates on the future, from the perspective of the EPSRC pr...
Privacy Technologies and Policy
This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the 7th Annual Privacy Forum, APF 2019, held in Rome, Italy, in June 2019. The 11 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 49 submissions. The papers present original work on the themes of data protection and privacy and their repercussions on technology, business, government, law, society, policy and law enforcement bridging the gap between research, business models, and policy. They are organized in topical sections on transparency, users' rights, risk assessment, and applications.
Online Social Media Analysis and Visualization
This edited volume addresses the vast challenges of adapting Online Social Media (OSM) to developing research methods and applications. The topics cover generating realistic social network topologies, awareness of user activities, topic and trend generation, estimation of user attributes from their social content, behavior detection, mining social content for common trends, identifying and ranking social content sources, building friend-comprehension tools, and many others. Each of the ten chapters tackle one or more of these issues by proposing new analysis methods or new visualization techniques, or both, for famous OSM applications such as Twitter and Facebook. This collection of contributed chapters address these challenges. Online Social Media has become part of the daily lives of hundreds of millions of users generating an immense amount of 'social content'. Addressing the challenges that stem from this wide adaptation of OSM is what makes this book a valuable contribution to the field of social networks.
Internet of Things
The Internet of Things as an emerging global Internet-based information archit- ture facilitating the exchange of goods and services is gradually developing. While the technology of the Internet of Things is still being discussed and created, the legal framework should be established before the Internet of Things is fully operable, in order to allow for an efective introduction of the new information architecture. If a self-regulatory approach is to be adopted to provide a legal framework for the Internet of Things, and this seems preferable, rulemakers can draw on experiences from the current regime of Internet governance. In the near future, mainly businesses will operate in the Internet o...
Principles of Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th European Conference on Principles of Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery, PKDD 2001, held in Freiburg, Germany, in September 2001. The 40 revised full papers presented together with four invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from close to 100 submissions. Among the topics addressed are hidden Markov models, text summarization, supervised learning, unsupervised learning, demographic data analysis, phenotype data mining, spatio-temporal clustering, Web-usage analysis, association rules, clustering algorithms, time series analysis, rule discovery, text categorization, self-organizing maps, filtering, reinforcemant learning, support vector machines, visual data mining, and machine learning.
Machine Learning: ECML 2004
The proceedings of ECML/PKDD 2004 are published in two separate, albeit - tertwined,volumes:theProceedingsofthe 15thEuropeanConferenceonMac- ne Learning (LNAI 3201) and the Proceedings of the 8th European Conferences on Principles and Practice of Knowledge Discovery in Databases (LNAI 3202). The two conferences were co-located in Pisa, Tuscany, Italy during September 20–24, 2004. It was the fourth time in a row that ECML and PKDD were co-located. - ter the successful co-locations in Freiburg (2001), Helsinki (2002), and Cavtat- Dubrovnik (2003), it became clear that researchersstrongly supported the or- nization of a major scienti?c event about machine learning and data mining in Europe.
