Semantic resources, such as ontologies and taxonomies, are used in various domains to facilitate information exchange between people and software applications. However, in many cases, accessing a single semantic resource is no longer adequate. Conseq... Read More about Semantic resources integration and interoperability in the construction domain.

This paper proposes to integrate two very different kinds of methods for data mining, namely the construction of Bayesian networks from data and the detection of occurrences of Simpson’s paradox. The former aims at discovering potentially causal know... Read More about Integrating Bayesian networks and Simpson's paradox in data mining.
