ADVANSE: ADVanced Analytics for data SciencE

The research activities carried out by the project team ADVANSE deals with large databases, i.e. Big Data, especially in the field of Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining. They cover the main following areas:
• Data mining in complex databases : structured, semi-structured, multi-dimensional, qualitative, quantitative, textual, spatial and temporal, approximate, noisy or available in data warehouses (multidimensional data, aggregated, etc.) in the context of decision support;
• Data mining in dynamic databases, i.e. the data are expressed as a continuous stream of data at high speed and it is not possible to store;
• Visualization for help the decision makers to understand their data or to better understand the extracted knowledge;
Expert for many years in the field of data mining, ADVANSE focuses particularly on data related to health and the environment.
