This book is a selection of results obtained within one year of research performed under SYNAT - a nation-wide scientific project aiming to create an infrastructure for scientific content storage and sharing for academia, education and open knowledge society in Poland. The selection refers to the research in artificial intelligence, knowledge discovery and data mining, information retrieval and natural language processing, addressing the problems of implementing intelligent tools for building a scientific information platform. The idea of this book is based on the very successful SYNAT Project Conference and the SYNAT Workshop accompanying the 19th International Symposium on Methodologies for Intelligent Systems (ISMIS 2011). The papers included in this book present an overview and insight into such topics as architecture of scientific information platforms, semantic clustering, ontology-based systems, as well as, multimedia data processing.

This book is a selection of results obtained within three years of research performed under SYNAT—a nation-wide scientific project aiming at creating an infrastructure for scientific content storage and sharing for academia, education and open knowledge society in Poland. The book is intended to be the last of the series related to the SYNAT project. The previous books, titled “Intelligent Tools for Building a Scientific Information Platform” and “Intelligent Tools for Building a Scientific Information Platform: Advanced Architectures and Solutions”, were published as volumes 390 and 467 in Springer's Studies in Computational Intelligence. Its contents is based on the SYNAT 2013 Workshop held in Warsaw. The papers included in this volume present an overview and insight into information retrieval, repository systems, text processing, ontology-based systems, text mining, multimedia data processing and advanced software engineering, addressing the problems of implementing intelligent tools for building a scientific information platform.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 21st International Symposium on Methodologies for Intelligent Systems, ISMIS 2014, held in Roskilde, Denmark, in June 2014. The 61 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 111 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on complex networks and data stream mining; data mining methods; intelligent systems applications; knowledge representation in databases and systems; textual data analysis and mining; special session: challenges in text mining and semantic information retrieval; special session: warehousing and OLAPing complex, spatial and spatio-temporal data; ISMIS posters.

The two-volume set LNCS 11508 and 11509 constitutes the refereed proceedings of of the 18th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Soft Computing, ICAISC 2019, held in Zakopane, Poland, in June 2019. The 122 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 333 submissions. The papers included in the first volume are organized in the following five parts: neural networks and their applications; fuzzy systems and their applications; evolutionary algorithms and their applications; pattern classification; artificial intelligence in modeling and simulation. The papers included in the second volume are organized in the following five parts: computer vision, image and speech analysis; bioinformatics, biometrics, and medical applications; data mining; various problems of artificial intelligence; agent systems, robotics and control.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th IFIP WG 8.9 Working Conference on Research and Practical Issues of Enterprise Information Systems, CONFENIS 2018, held as part of the World Computer Congress, WCC 2018, in Poznan, Poland, in September 2018. The 12 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 28 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: EIS management and case studies; data management and applications for EIS; collaborative and social interaction; and data access, security, and privacy.

How can cognition, a concept traditionally associated with the human brain, be applied to satellite systems? For the first time, cognitive system meanings and models are applied to the uncertain environmental processes of satellite systems. The authors of this book go beyond defining 'cognitive satellite systems' to design a cognitive satellite communication system architecture with satellite-to-ground coordination, which has uses in emergency response spacecraft and prediction technology.In this book, the optimal utilization of cognitive satellite system resources is discussed in four aspects:

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Advanced Data Mining and Applications, ADMA 2012, held in Nanjing, China, in December 2012. The 32 regular papers and 32 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 168 submissions. They are organized in topical sections named: social media mining; clustering; machine learning: algorithms and applications; classification; prediction, regression and recognition; optimization and approximation; mining time series and streaming data; Web mining and semantic analysis; data mining applications; search and retrieval; information recommendation and hiding; outlier detection; topic modeling; and data cube computing.
