Data Mining Multi-Attribute Decision System. Facilitating Decision Support Through Data Mining Technique by Hierarchical Multi-Attribute Decision Models
Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2020 in the subject Computer Science - Commercial Information Technology, Symbiosis International University, language: English, abstract: Data mining is coined one of the steps while discovering insights from large amounts of data which may be stored in databases, data warehouses, or in other information repositories. Data mining is now playing a significant role in seeking a decision support to draw higher profits by the modern business world. Various researchers studied the benefits of data mining processes and its adoption by business organizations, but very few of them have discussed the success factors of decision support projects. The Research Hypothesis states the involvement of the decision tree while adopting accuracy of classification and while emphasizing the impact factor or importance of the attributes rather than the information gain. The concept of involvement of impact factor rather than just accuracy can be utilized in developing the new algorithm whose performance improves over the existing algorithms. We proposed a new algorithm which improves accuracy and contributing effectively in decision tree learning. We presented an algorithm that resolves the above stated problem of confliction of class. We have introduced the impact factor and classified impact factor to resolve the conflict situation. We have used data mining technique in facilitating the decision support with improved performance over its existing companion. We have also addressed the unique problem which have not been addressed before. Definitely, the fusion of data mining and decision support can contribute to problem-solving by enabling the vast hidden knowledge from data and knowledge received from experts. We have discussed a lot of work done in the field of decision support and hierarchical multi-attribute decision models. Ample amount of algorithms are available which are used to classify the data in datasets. Most algorithms use
Robotic Process Automation (RPA)
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2020 im Fachbereich Informatik - Wirtschaftsinformatik, Note: 1,3, FOM Hochschule f羹r Oekonomie & Management gemeinn羹tzige GmbH, Frankfurt fr羹her Fachhochschule, Veranstaltung: Wirtschaftsinformatik, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In dieser Arbeit geht es um Robotic Process Automation (RPA) und dessen Wichtigkeit bei der Bew瓣ltigung von Gesch瓣ftsprozessen, in denen der Mensch noch nicht zu ersetzen ist und wichtige Entscheidungen zu treffen hat. Abschlie?end wird einen Bestellprozess mit BPMN 2.0 modelliert, bei dem verschiedene Aufgaben automatisiert durch RPA ausgef羹hrt werden k繹nnen. Viele Gesch瓣ftsprozesse sind heutzutage zu komplex und erfordern eine gro?e Zahl an Mitarbeiter, um diese zu bew瓣ltigen. Wiederkehrende Aufgaben wie das Verschicken einer E-Mail, einer Bestellbest瓣tigung oder Rechnung k繹nnen auch von einem Roboter 羹bernommen werden. Der Mensch kann sich nun auf das Wesentliche konzentrieren und eint繹nige Arbeit der Maschine 羹berlassen. Die Automatisierung ist in viele Bereichen eingedrungen und bringt enorme Vorteile mit sich. Automatisierte Prozesse haben Produktionsanlagen erobert und brauchen den Menschen nur f羹r deren ?berwachung, genauso wenig wird der Einsatz des Menschen in digitalen Gesch瓣ftsprozessen ben繹tigt, weil Automatisierung Kosten reduziert und die Effizienz des Unternehmens steigert. Die Kehrseite der Automatisierung sind die Arbeitsplatzverluste der Menschen, da bestimmte T瓣tigkeiten der Mitarbeiter von den Robotern in Rekordzeit und manchmal auch fehlerfrei ausgef羹hrt werden k繹nnen, sodass der Mensch nicht mehr ben繹tigt wird. Die Automatisierung geht aber auch anders, bzw. k繹nnte dem Menschen ein wertvoller Arbeitskollege bei der Bew瓣ltigung der Aufgaben sein und ihn in seiner T瓣tigkeit entlassen.
Softwareentwicklung mit Scrum
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2020 im Fachbereich Informatik - Wirtschaftsinformatik, Note: 1,00, FOM Hochschule f羹r Oekonomie & Management gemeinn羹tzige GmbH, Frankfurt fr羹her Fachhochschule, Veranstaltung: Wirtschaftsinformatik, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Ziel dieser Arbeit ist, die Entwicklung einer Software mit Hilfe der agilen Methode Scrum zu demonstrieren. Da es sich in dieser Arbeit um ein theoretisches Model handelt, wird am Ende keine fertige Software pr瓣sentiert, sondern es wird die Durchf羹hrung eines Sprints aus der Sicht des Scrum-Teams erl瓣utert. Agile Methoden im Projektmanagement werden immer beliebter und werden fast von jedem Unternehmen implementiert, denn mithilfe dieser werden hochwertige Produkte ressourcenschonend und in k羹rzerer Zeit auslieferungsf瓣hig. Agil zu arbeiten, bedeutet auf Situationen zu reagieren, die sich w瓣hrend des Projekts immer wieder 瓣ndern oder anpassen m羹ssen. Heutzutage gestaltet sich die Ausf羹hrung von Projekten viel komplexer, da viele Komponente ber羹cksichtigt werden m羹ssen. Dies hat zur Folge, dass es innerhalb des Projektes sehr schnell un羹bersichtlich werden kann. Aus diesem Grund reichen die klassischen Projektmethoden wie bspw. die Wasserfall-Methode nicht aus, um dieser Komplexit瓣t standzuhalten. F羹r die Softwareentwicklung eignet sich SCRUM sehr gut, da ?nderungen der Anforderungen im Laufe des Projektes erlaubt sind. In Scrum gibt es wenige Regeln, die schon klar definiert sind. Innerhalb des Teams besteht keine Hierarchie und es finden zahlreiche Meetings statt, diese m繹gen zwar st繹rend sein, aber f羹r den Erfolg eines Scrum-Projektes sind sie unentbehrlich, denn nur durch Feedback kann das Projekt sein volles Potenzial entfalten

Building a Comprehensive English-Arabic Wordsense Database
Masterarbeit aus dem Jahr 2013 im Fachbereich Informatik - Computerlinguistik, University of Alexandria, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The present study derives its significance from the fact that it focuses on identifying language learners' habits of dictionary use, dictionary reference skills, and attitudes towards different types of dictionaries in the past studies on dictionary use and in the present study as well. This emphasizes the great importance of conducting research on dictionary users' needs in order to obtain users' profiles before starting to compile dictionaries for different purposes and usages. To illustrate, instead of student-translators' either spending much time and effort looking up a given source text (ST) word in a number of dictionaries whether printed or electronic to make use of the word entry components that are crucial to a translation task or minimizing their effort to only using a bilingual dictionaries (BLD) list of translations, the researcher has built a free online combinatory BLD that is faster and easier to access by student-translators and that comprises the word entry components vital to the translation process. The present study also raises the issue of emphasizing the benefit of employing automatic resource combination methodologies for purposes other than creating lexicons for use in NLP systems, such as constructing dictionaries for use in human translation as presented in the current study as well as building better learner's dictionaries. The issue of dictionary users' consultation practices and attitudes towards different types of dictionaries has been the subject of many research efforts. To illustrate, it has been proved by past empirical studies on dictionary use, as demonstrated in Atkins' (1998), Humbl矇's (2001), and Welker's (2010) studies, for example, that foreign language (FL) learners and translation trainees hardly consult reference tools other than bilingual dictionaries (BLDs). This occurs owing to a numbe

Python Programming and Visualization for Scientists
Python continues to gain dominance as a language of choice for analyzing and visualizing scientific data. Although it has concise, intuitive syntax, learning how to plot and visualize data requires scouring the internet for documentation and examples. This book was written from the perspective of "What book would the authors want to have had when they were transitioning to Python?"A second edition of the book was made necessary by the transition to Python 3, which did not maintain full backward compatibility with earlier versions of the language. The second edition has been completely revised to ensure that all code examples work in Python 3. Additional chapters on the Pandas library and Cartopy have been included, as well as an appendix on Jupyter notebooks, which have become an important tool for developing and communicating code in both the research and educational settings.The 90 figures are mostly in color, and color syntax highlighting is used with all code samples throughout the text to facilitate visual recognition of program structure.The first edition of the book has proven useful not only as a classroom text but also as a guide and reference for students, educators, and researchers who already have programming experience and want to start creating plots and analyzing data using Python. The second edition will serve the same role. It is not meant for the person who is completely new to programming, nor is it an introductory computer science textbook. The authors' assumptions are that the reader has some experience programming with a language other than Python.Although the new Python programmer may wish to read the book cover to cover, the book is organized such that an experienced programmer can readily jump to the appropriate chapter. An extensive index aids in searching for functions and methods useful for data visualization and analysis.

Programmare
Il motivo per cui ho iniziato a scrivere questo libro 癡 per aiutare chi vuole imparare a programmare. Il libro non insegna a usare un linguaggio di programmazione, ma a capire come fare per scrivere un programma. Come ragiona un programmatore? Come fare per analizzare un problema? Come scrivere una soluzione valida? Scrivere un software non 癡 una cosa complicata, basta fare attenzione e comprendere qual'癡 il nocciolo della questione: risolvere un problema. Imparerete a risolvere dei problemi individuando un processo o un algoritmo, raffigurandolo con un diagramma a blocchi per poi tradurlo facilmente in codice. Nel libro tratto la scrittura in Scratch e Python ma il metodo pu簷 essere applicato a qualsiasi linguaggio di programmazione. Scrivo software dall'et? di 10 anni e mi 癡 sempre piaciuto avere a che fare con i computer. Attualmente scrivo programmi in numerosi linguaggi: Java, Swift, Javascript, C e C++, Python e altri.

Javascript For Beginners
Welcome to the Wonderful World of JavaScriptIf you have experience with web programming particularly working with HTML, then the next step is to learn JavaScript. With the use of scripts, you can give your web pages an added punch. You will also make your web pages a lot more flexible and interactive.You will also transform static HTML web pages allowing them to validate any user input. You will also learn how to adapt your code across several different web browsers. Eventually as you learn the ropes of this programming language you will also know how to integrate other related technologies such as ActiveX components, Java applets, plugins, and others.But what is JavaScript?JavaScript (we'll call it JS for short) is one of the many dynamic programming languages that you can find today. It is lightweight - which means it doesn't require a lot of resources to get it running in your computer. The scripts that you write with this programming language will become one of the most common parts of many web pages.Another thing that you should know is that it is an interpreted computer programming language. That means the code that you will write won't need to be "translated" or compiled into machine code by a compiler. In other words, it doesn't need to be converted from human readable code to machine language.

Json for Beginners
This book contains the steps, strategies, and techniques you need to learn, explore, and use JSON, the preferred and standard data format of the web. It was conceptualized and developed to provide beginners and web developers a comprehensive training that will help them master JSON in as short as one day.What is JSON and why should you learn it? JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation. A subset of JavaScript, it is a way of storing information in an organized manner. It provides human readable data that can be accessed easily and logically. JSON facilitates data transfer between a server and a web application. The JSON format is used to serialize and transmit structured data over the internet. Its simplicity and flexibility allows it to be used across applications, programming languages, and framework.JSON is a lightweight text-only format that can be easily transferred to and from a server. While it is strongly associated with JavaScript, JSON is a language-independent format that is popularly used in modern programming languages such as Python, PERL, Java, Ruby, and PHP. You'll typically find built-in functions, methods, or workaround that allow these programming languages to utilize JSON.
