  • Mapreduce-Based D ELT Framework to Address the Challenges of Geospatial Big Data
    International Journal of Geo-Information Article MapReduce-Based D_ELT Framework to Address the Challenges of Geospatial Big Data Junghee Jo 1,* and Kang-Woo Lee 2 1 Busan National University of Education, Busan 46241, Korea 2 Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), Daejeon 34129, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-51-500-7327 Received: 15 August 2019; Accepted: 21 October 2019; Published: 24 October 2019 Abstract: The conventional extracting–transforming–loading (ETL) system is typically operated on a single machine not capable of handling huge volumes of geospatial big data. To deal with the considerable amount of big data in the ETL process, we propose D_ELT (delayed extracting–loading –transforming) by utilizing MapReduce-based parallelization. Among various kinds of big data, we concentrate on geospatial big data generated via sensors using Internet of Things (IoT) technology. In the IoT environment, update latency for sensor big data is typically short and old data are not worth further analysis, so the speed of data preparation is even more significant. We conducted several experiments measuring the overall performance of D_ELT and compared it with both traditional ETL and extracting–loading– transforming (ELT) systems, using different sizes of data and complexity levels for analysis. The experimental results show that D_ELT outperforms the other two approaches, ETL and ELT. In addition, the larger the amount of data or the higher the complexity of the analysis, the greater the parallelization effect of transform in D_ELT, leading to better performance over the traditional ETL and ELT approaches. Keywords: ETL; ELT; big data; sensor data; IoT; geospatial big data; MapReduce 1.

  • A Survey on Data Collection for Machine Learning a Big Data - AI Integration Perspective
    1 A Survey on Data Collection for Machine Learning A Big Data - AI Integration Perspective Yuji Roh, Geon Heo, Steven Euijong Whang, Senior Member, IEEE Abstract—Data collection is a major bottleneck in machine learning and an active research topic in multiple communities. There are largely two reasons data collection has recently become a critical issue. First, as machine learning is becoming more widely-used, we are seeing new applications that do not necessarily have enough labeled data. Second, unlike traditional machine learning, deep learning techniques automatically generate features, which saves feature engineering costs, but in return may require larger amounts of labeled data. Interestingly, recent research in data collection comes not only from the machine learning, natural language, and computer vision communities, but also from the data management community due to the importance of handling large amounts of data. In this survey, we perform a comprehensive study of data collection from a data management point of view. Data collection largely consists of data acquisition, data labeling, and improvement of existing data or models. We provide a research landscape of these operations, provide guidelines on which technique to use when, and identify interesting research challenges. The integration of machine learning and data management for data collection is part of a larger trend of Big data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration and opens many opportunities for new research. Index Terms—data collection, data acquisition, data labeling, machine learning F 1 INTRODUCTION E are living in exciting times where machine learning expertise. This problem applies to any novel application that W is having a profound influence on a wide range of benefits from machine learning.

  • Best Practices in Data Collection and Preparation: Recommendations For
    Feature Topic on Reviewer Resources Organizational Research Methods 2021, Vol. 24(4) 678–\693 ª The Author(s) 2019 Best Practices in Data Article reuse guidelines: sagepub.com/journals-permissions Collection and Preparation: DOI: 10.1177/1094428119836485 journals.sagepub.com/home/orm Recommendations for Reviewers, Editors, and Authors Herman Aguinis1 , N. Sharon Hill1, and James R. Bailey1 Abstract We offer best-practice recommendations for journal reviewers, editors, and authors regarding data collection and preparation. Our recommendations are applicable to research adopting dif- ferent epistemological and ontological perspectives—including both quantitative and qualitative approaches—as well as research addressing micro (i.e., individuals, teams) and macro (i.e., organizations, industries) levels of analysis. Our recommendations regarding data collection address (a) type of research design, (b) control variables, (c) sampling procedures, and (d) missing data management. Our recommendations regarding data preparation address (e) outlier man- agement, (f) use of corrections for statistical and methodological artifacts, and (g) data trans- formations. Our recommendations address best practices as well as transparency issues. The formal implementation of our recommendations in the manuscript review process will likely motivate authors to increase transparency because failure to disclose necessary information may lead to a manuscript rejection decision. Also, reviewers can use our recommendations for developmental purposes to highlight which particular issues should be improved in a revised version of a manuscript and in future research. Taken together, the implementation of our rec- ommendations in the form of checklists can help address current challenges regarding results and inferential reproducibility as well as enhance the credibility, trustworthiness, and usefulness of the scholarly knowledge that is produced.

  • Preparing a Data Migration Plan a Practical Introduction to Data Migration Strategy and Planning
    Preparing a Data Migration Plan A practical introduction to data migration strategy and planning April 2017 2 Introduction Thank you for downloading this guide, which aims to help with the development of a plan for a data migration. The guide is based on our years of work in the data movement industry, where we provide off-the- shelf software and consultancy for organisations across the world. Data migration is a complex undertaking, and the processes and software used are continually evolving. The approach in this guide incorporates data migration best practice, with the aim of making the data migration process a little more straightforward. We should start with a quick definition of what we mean by data migration. The term usually refers to the movement of data from an old or legacy system to a new system. Data migration is typically part of a larger programme and is often triggered by a merger or acquisition, a business decision to standardise systems, or modernisation of an organisation’s systems. The data migration planning outlined in this guide dovetails neatly into the overall requirements of an organisation.

  • Web Data Integration: a New Source of Competitive Advantage
    Web Data Integration: A new source of competitive advantage An Ovum white paper for Import.io Publication Date: 29 January 2019 Author: Tony Baer Web Data Integration: A new source of competitive advantage Summary Catalyst Web data provides key indicators into a company’s competitive landscape. By showing the public face of how rivals position themselves and providing early indicators of changing attitudes, sentiments, and interests, web data complements traditional enterprise data in helping companies stay updated on their competitive challenges. The difficulty is that many organizations lack a full understanding of the value of web data, what to look for, and how to manage it so that it can live up to its promise of complementing enterprise data to provide fresh, timely views of a company’s competitive landscape. Ovum view Web Data Integration applies the discipline and automation normally associated with conventional enterprise data management to web data. Web Data Integration makes web data a valuable resource for the organization seeking to understand their competitive position, or understand key challenges in their market, such as the performance of publicly traded companies or consumer perceptions and attitudes towards products. Web Data Integration ventures beyond traditional web scraping by emulating the workings of a modern browser, extracting data not otherwise accessible from the simple parsing of HTML documents. Automation and machine learning are essential to the success of Web Data Integration. Automation allows the workflows for extracting, preparing, and integrating data to be orchestrated, reused, and consistently monitored. Machine Learning (ML) allows non-technical users to train an extractor for a specific website without having to write any code.

  • Automated Machine Learning for Healthcare and Clinical Notes Analysis
    computers Review Automated Machine Learning for Healthcare and Clinical Notes Analysis Akram Mustafa and Mostafa Rahimi Azghadi * College of Science and Engineering, James Cook University, Townsville, QLD 4811, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Machine learning (ML) has been slowly entering every aspect of our lives and its positive impact has been astonishing. To accelerate embedding ML in more applications and incorporating it in real-world scenarios, automated machine learning (AutoML) is emerging. The main purpose of AutoML is to provide seamless integration of ML in various industries, which will facilitate better outcomes in everyday tasks. In healthcare, AutoML has been already applied to easier settings with structured data such as tabular lab data. However, there is still a need for applying AutoML for interpreting medical text, which is being generated at a tremendous rate. For this to happen, a promising method is AutoML for clinical notes analysis, which is an unexplored research area representing a gap in ML research. The main objective of this paper is to fill this gap and provide a comprehensive survey and analytical study towards AutoML for clinical notes. To that end, we first introduce the AutoML technology and review its various tools and techniques. We then survey the literature of AutoML in the healthcare industry and discuss the developments specific to clinical settings, as well as those using general AutoML tools for healthcare applications. With this Citation: Mustafa, A.; background, we then discuss challenges of working with clinical notes and highlight the benefits of Rahimi Azghadi, M.
