This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed joint post-workshop proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Mining Ubiquitous and Social Environments, MUSE 2013, held in Prague, Czech Republic, in September 2013, and the 4th International Workshop on Modeling Social Media, MSM 2013, held in Paris, France, in May 2013. The 8 full papers included in the book are revised and significantly extended versions of papers submitted to the workshops. The focus is on collective intelligence in ubiquitous and social environments. Issues tackled include personalization in social streams, recommendations exploiting social and ubiquitous data, and efficient information processing in social systems. Furthermore, this book presents work dealing with the problem of mining patterns from ubiquitous social data, including mobility mining and exploratory methods for ubiquitous data analysis.

This book constitutes the joint thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Modeling Social Media, MSM 2011, held in Boston, MA, USA, in October 2011, and the Second International Workshop on Mining Ubiquitous and Social Environments, MUSE 2011, held in Athens, Greece, in September 2011. The 9 full papers included in the book are revised and significantly extended versions of papers submitted to the workshops. They cover a wide range of topics organized in three main themes: communities and networks in ubiquitous social media; mining approaches; and issues of user modeling, privacy and security.

This book constitutes the joint thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of The Modeling Social Media Workshop, MSM 2010 held in Toronto, Canada in June 2010 and the International Workshop on Mining Ubiquitous and Social Environments, MUSE 2010, held in Barcelona, Spain in September 2010.

The eight revised full papers included were carefully reviewed and selected after two rounds of reviewing and revision. The papers address various aspects of the analysis and engineering of socio-computational systems in which social, ubiquitous and computational processes are interdependent and tightly interwoven

This book contains a selection of the best papers of the 30th Benelux Conference on Artificial Intelligence, BNAIC 2018, held in 's-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands, in November 2018. The 9 full papers and 3 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 31 submissions. They address various aspects of artificial intelligence such as natural language processing, agent technology, game theory, problem solving, machine learning, human-agent interaction, AI and education, and data analysis.

The 9 papers presented in this book are revised and significantly extended versions of papers submitted to three related workshops: The 5th International Workshop on Mining Ubiquitous and Social Environments, MUSE 2014, and the First International Workshop on Machine Learning for Urban Sensor Data, SenseML 2014, which were held on September 15, 2014, in conjunction with the European Conference on Machine Learning and Principles and Practice of Knowledge Discovery in Databases (ECML-PKDD 2014) in Nancy, France; and the 5th International Workshop on Modeling Social Media (MSM 2014) that was held on April 8, 2014 in conjunction with ACM WWW in Seoul, Korea.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed joint post-proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Mining Ubiquitous and Social Environments, MUSE 2012, held in Bristol, UK, in September 2012, and the Third International Workshop on Modeling Social Media, MSM 2012, held in Milwaukee, WI, USA, in June 2012. The 8 full papers included in the book are revised and significantly extended versions of papers submitted to the workshops. They cover a wide range of topics organized in three main themes: communities and group structure in ubiquitous social media; ubiquitous modeling and aspects of social interactions and influence.

The significance of big data can be observed in any decision-making process as it is often used for forecasting and predictive analytics. Additionally, big data can be used to build a holistic view of an enterprise through a collection and analysis of large data sets retrospectively. As the data deluge deepens, new methods for analyzing, comprehending, and making use of big data become necessary. Enterprise Big Data Engineering, Analytics, and Management presents novel methodologies and practical approaches to engineering, managing, and analyzing large-scale data sets with a focus on enterprise applications and implementation. Featuring essential big data concepts including data mining, artificial intelligence, and information extraction, this publication provides a platform for retargeting the current research available in the field. Data analysts, IT professionals, researchers, and graduate-level students will find the timely research presented in this publication essential to furthering their knowledge in the field.
