Opinion Mining and Text Analytics on Literary Works and Social Media introduces the use of artificial intelligence and big data analytics techniques which can apply opinion mining and text analytics on literary works and social media. This book focuses on theories, method and approaches in which data analytic techniques can be used to analyze data from social media, literary books, novels, news, texts, and beyond to provide a meaningful pattern. The subject area of this book is multidisciplinary; related to data science, artificial intelligence, social science and humanities, and literature. This is an essential resource for scholars, Students and lecturers from various fields of data science, artificial intelligence, social science and humanities, and literature, university libraries, new agencies, and many more.

First designed to generate personalized recommendations to users in the 90s, recommender systems apply knowledge discovery techniques to users' data to suggest information, products, and services that best match their preferences. In recent decades, we have seen an exponential increase in the volumes of data, which has introduced many new challenges. Divided into two volumes, this comprehensive set covers recent advances, challenges, novel solutions, and applications in big data recommender systems. Volume 1 contains 14 chapters addressing foundations, algorithms and architectures, approaches for big data, and trust and security measures. Volume 2 covers a broad range of application paradigms for recommender systems over 22 chapters.

Internet of Things (IoTs) are now being integrated at a large scale in fast-developing applications such as healthcare, transportation, education, finance, insurance and retail. The next generation of automated applications will command machines to do tasks better and more efficiently. Both industry and academic researchers are looking at transforming applications using machine learning and deep learning to build better models and by taking advantage of the decentralized nature of Blockchain. But the advent of these new technologies also brings very high expectations to industries, organisations and users. The decrease of computing costs, the improvement of data integrity in Blockchain, and the verification of transactions using Machine Learning are becoming essential goals. This edited book covers the challenges, opportunities, innovations, new concepts and emerging trends related to the use of machine learning, Blockchain and Big Data analytics for IoTs. The book is aimed at a broad audience of ICTs, data science, machine learning and cybersecurity researchers interested in the integration of these disruptive technologies and their applications for IoTs.
