The evolution of the Internet and computer applications have generated colossal amount of data. They are referred to as Big Data and they consist of huge volume, high velocity, and variable datasets that need to be managed at the right…
Data classification, the process of analyzing data and organizing it into categories, is a fundamental computing problem of natural and artificial information processing systems. Ideally, the performance of classifier models would be…
Moments of large datasets utilise the mean of the dataset; consequently, updating the dataset traditionally requires one to update the mean, which then requires one to recalculate the moment. This means that metrics such as the standard…
A powerful approach to detecting erroneous data is to check which potentially dirty data records are incompatible with a user's domain knowledge. Previous approaches allow the user to specify domain knowledge in the form of logical…

Data fusion has played an important role in data mining because high-quality data is required in a lot of applications. As on-line data may be out-of-date and errors in the data may propagate with copying and referring between sources, it…
When machine learning systems meet real world applications, accuracy is only one of several requirements. In this paper, we assay a complementary perspective originating from the increasing availability of pre-trained and regularly…
We consider the problem of estimating the common time of a change in the mean parameters of panel data when dependence is allowed between the panels in the form of a common factor. A CUSUM type estimator is proposed, and we establish first…
An important challenge in statistical analysis lies in controlling the bias of estimators due to the ever-increasing data size and model complexity. Approximate numerical methods and data features like censoring and misclassification often…
Quantum computation is a promising emerging technology which, compared to conventional computation, allows for substantial speed-ups e.g. for integer factorization or database search. However, since physical realizations of quantum…

Traditional perturbative statistical disclosure control (SDC) approaches such as microaggregation, noise addition, rank swapping, etc, perturb the data in an ``ad-hoc" way in the sense that while they manage to preserve some particular…
Time series data can be subject to changes in the underlying process that generates them and, because of these changes, models built on old samples can become obsolete or perform poorly. In this work, we present a way to incorporate…
The Massive Parallel Computing (MPC) model gained popularity during the last decade and it is now seen as the standard model for processing large scale data. One significant shortcoming of the model is that it assumes to work on static…
