Software is an integral part of our lives today. Modern software systems are highly complex and often pose new challenges in different aspects of Software Engineering (SE).Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a growing field in computer science that has been proven effective in applying and developing AI techniques to address various SE challenges.This unique compendium covers applications of state-of-the-art AI techniques to the key areas of SE (design, development, debugging, testing, etc).Al...

This open access book is part of the LAMBDA Project (Learning, Applying, Multiplying Big Data Analytics), funded by the European Union, GA No. 809965. Data Analytics involves applying algorithmic processes to derive insights. Nowadays it is used in many industries to allow organizations and companies to make better decisions as well as to verify or disprove existing theories or models. The term data analytics is often used interchangeably with intelligence, statistics, reasoning, data mini...

This edited volume is devoted to Big Data Analysis from a Machine Learning standpoint as presented by some of the most eminent researchers in this area.It demonstrates that Big Data Analysis opens up new research problems which were either never considered before, or were only considered within a limited range. In addition to providing methodological discussions on the principles of mining Big Data and the difference between traditional statistical data analysis and newer computing...

The proposed book will discuss various aspects of big data Analytics. It will deliberate upon the tools, technology, applications, use cases and research directions in the field. Chapters would be contributed by researchers, scientist and practitioners from various reputed universities and organizations for the benefit of readers.

This book provides stepwise discussion, exhaustive literature review, detailed analysis and discussion, rigorous experimentation results (using several analytics tools), and an application-oriented approach that can be demonstrated with respect to data analytics using artificial intelligence to make systems stronger (i.e., impossible to breach). We can see many serious cyber breaches on Government databases or public profiles at online social networking in the recent decade. Today artifici...
