Context Mediation is a field of research that is concerned with the
interchange of information across different environments, which
provides a vehicle to bridge semantic gaps among disparate
entities. Knowledge Discovery is concerned with the extraction of
actionable information from large databases. A challenge that has
received relatively little attention is knowledge discovery in a
highly disparate environment, that is multiple heterogeneous data
sources, multiple domain knowledge sources and multiple knowledge
patterns. This thesis tackles the problem of semantic
interoperability among data, domain knowledge and knowledge
patterns in a knowledge discovery process using context mediation.
All presented techniques, methods and models are applied in
real-world scenarios, covering disciplines from a wide range of
industry, namely web mining and marketing, manufacturing,
meteorology and internationalisation. When feasible, industry
standards were utilised, for instance ODMG, PMML and KQML. The
carried out research has resulted in almost fifty international
publications, including the co-authorship of a book, a journal
editorship and one conference best paper award.
