Data Mining: Foundations and Intelligent Paradigms
Volume 3: Medical, Health, Social, Biological and other Applications
Chapter
This chapter explores the theory of Bayesian networks with particular reference to Maximum Entropy Formalism. A discussion of objective Bayesianism is given together with some brief remarks on applications.

Previous studies of acetate-promoted bioremediation of uranium-contaminated aquifers focused on Geobacter because no other microorganisms that can couple the oxidation of acetate with U(VI) reduction had been det...

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is formed during wastewater nitrogen removal processes. It is a strong greenhouse gas, however, if properly captured it can also be used as a renewable energy source. In this study, a nosZ-def...

As discussed in the previous volume, the term Data Mining grew from the relentless growth of techniques used to interrogation masses of data. As a myriad of databases emanated from disparate industries, enterpris...

The term Data Mining grew from the relentless growth of techniques used to interrogation masses of data. As a myriad of databases emanated from disparate industries, management insisted their information officers...
Chapter
Reasoning with incomplete and unreliable information is a central characteristic of decision making, for example in industry, medicine and finance. Bayesian networks provide a theoretical framework for dealing...
Chapter
The author’s past work in this area has shown that the probability of a state of a Bayesian network, found using the standard Bayesian techniques, could be equated to the Maximum Entropy solution and that this...
Article
In many marine environments, a voltage gradient exists across the water–sediment interface resulting from sedimentary microbial activity. Here we show that a fuel cell consisting of an anode embedded in marine...
