Big data involves analyzing large and complex datasets that cannot be processed by traditional methods. It faces challenges including data volume, variety, velocity, and veracity. Data visualization helps address these challenges by making patterns in the data easier to see. It allows faster understanding of data and trends. Effective visualization techniques depend on the type of data, and may include standard charts, geometric transformations, icons, pixels, hierarchies, tags, clusters, motion charts, dashboards, color/size/connections, maps, and text analysis.
Data has become an indispensable part of every economy, industry, organization, business
function and individual. Big Data is a term used to identify the datasets that whose size is
beyond the ability of typical database software tools to store, manage and analyze. The Big
Data introduce unique computational and statistical challenges, including scalability and
storage bottleneck, noise accumulation, spurious correlation and measurement errors. These
challenges are distinguished and require new computational and statistical paradigm. This
paper presents the literature review about the Big data Mining and the issues and challenges
with emphasis on the distinguished features of Big Data. It also discusses some methods to deal
with big data.
Creating Effective Data Visualizations in Excel 2016: Some BasicsShalin Hai-Jew
One of the mainstays of a modern software toolkit is Excel 2016, from Microsoft Office 2016. By reputation, Excel is considered a beginner’s tool that self-respecting data analysts would bypass, but Excel is fairly high-powered, can take up to 1.06 million rows of data per set, contains complex statistical analysis capabilities (without the need for scripting), and enables rich data visualizations. It has a number of rich add-ons to empower different analytical and data visualization functionalities. It works as a great bridging tool to more complex types of statistical analyses.
This session walks participants through some basic built-in data visualizations in Excel 2016, including pie charts and doughnuts, bar charts, tree maps and sunburst diagrams, cluster diagrams, spider (radar) charts, scattergraphs, and others. This session will cover how data structures and desired emphases will determine the options for particular data visualizations.
In this session, participants will
review how to load a data table,
read the general data in a data table (or worksheet),
process or clean the data as needed,
use the Recommended Charts feature,
decide which built-in data visualizations to use, and
consider how to add relevant data visualization elements (including data labels, background grids, axis labels, and titles) for a coherent and effective data visualization.
Also, participants will help co-build data visualizations from open-source and other datasets.

Creating Effective Data Visualizations for Online Learning Shalin Hai-Jew
Virtually every type of online learning involves some type of data visualization. Some common data visualizations include timelines, process diagrams, linegraphs, bar charts, pie charts, treemap diagrams, dendrograms, cluster diagrams, geographical maps, network graphs, word clouds, word networks, scatter diagrams, scatterplot matrices, intensity matrices, decision trees, and others. Indeed, there is also data in screenshots, photos, drawings, videos, or other types of visuals. Online dashboards contain rich data visualizations to convey dynamic data. Some data, such as big data, may only be conveyed in visuals for human understanding and interpretation; in raw form, the meaning is obscured and elusive. Data visualizations highlight salient aspects of data, and they have to be aligned for particular multi-uses: (1) user awareness and understanding, (2) data analytics, and (3) decision-making. This session defines some best practices for informative and engaging data visualizations for online learning. Original real-world examples are provided from modern software programs.

Big data is a prominent term which characterizes the improvement and availability of data in all three
formats like structure, unstructured and semi formats. Structure data is located in a fixed field of a record
or file and it is present in the relational data bases and spreadsheets whereas an unstructured data file
includes text and multimedia contents. The primary objective of this big data concept is to describe the
extreme volume of data sets i.e. both structured and unstructured. It is further defined with three “V”
dimensions namely Volume, Velocity and Variety, and two more “V” also added i.e. Value and Veracity.
Volume denotes the size of data, Velocity depends upon the speed of the data processing, Variety is
described with the types of the data, Value which derives the business value and Veracity describes about
the quality of the data and data understandability. Nowadays, big data has become unique and preferred
research areas in the field of computer science. Many open research problems are available in big data
and good solutions also been proposed by the researchers even though there is a need for development of
many new techniques and algorithms for big data analysis in order to get optimal solutions. In this paper,
a detailed study about big data, its basic concepts, history, applications, technique, research issues and
tools are discussed.

Stacked Generalization of Random Forest and Decision Tree Techniques for Libr...IJEACS
The huge amount of library data stored in our modern research and statistic centers of organizations is springing up on daily bases. These databases grow exponentially in size with respect to time, it becomes exceptionally difficult to easily understand the behavior and interpret data with the relationships that exist between attributes. This exponential growth of data poses new organizational challenges like the conventional record management system infrastructure could no longer cope to give precise and detailed information about the behavior data over time. There is confusion and novel concern in selecting tools that can support and handle big data visualization that deals with multi-dimension. Viewing all related data at once in a database is a problem that has attracted the interest of data professionals with machine learning skills. This is a lingering issue in the data industry because the existing techniques cannot be used to remove or filter noise from relevant data and pad up missing values in order to get the required information. The aim is to develop a stacked generalization model that combines the functionality of random forest and decision tree to visualization library database visualization. In this paper, the random forest and decision tree techniques were employed to effectively visualize large amounts of school library data. The proposed system was implemented with a few lines of Python code to create visualizations that can help users at a glance understand and interpret the behavior of data and its relationships. The model was trained and tested to learn and extract hidden patterns of data with a cross-validation test. It combined the functionalities of both models to form a stacked generalization model that performed better than the individual techniques. The stacked model produced 95% followed by the RF which produced a 95% accuracy rate and 0.223600 RMSE error value in comparison with the DT which recorded an 80.00% success rate and 0.15990 RMSE value.
Characterizing and Processing of Big Data Using Data Mining TechniquesIJTET Journal
Abstract— Big data is a popular term used to describe the exponential growth and availability of data, both structured and unstructured. It concerns Large-Volume, Complex and growing data sets in both multiple and autonomous sources. Not only in science and engineering big data are now rapidly expanding in all domains like physical, bio logical etc...The main objective of this paper is to characterize the features of big data. Here the HACE theorem, that characterizes the features of the Big Data revolution, and proposes a Big Data processing model, from the data mining perspective, is used. The aggregation of mining, analysis, information sources, user interest modeling, privacy and security are involved in this model. To explore and extract the large volumes of data and useful information or knowledge respectively is the most fundamental challenge in Big Data. So we should have a tendency to analyze these problems and knowledge revolution.
Data sciences is the topnotch in our world now as it enables us to predict the future and behaviors of people and systems alike.
Hence, this course focuses on introducing the processing involved in data sciences.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Big data visualization state of the art
1.
2. "Big data" is a field that treats ways to analyze, systematically extract information from, or
otherwise deal with data sets that are too large or complex to be dealt with by traditional data-
processing application software. Data with many cases (rows) offer greater statistical power,
while data with higher complexity (more attributes or columns) may lead to a higher false
discovery rate
3. Big data challenges
include capturing data, data storage, data
analysis, search, sharing, transfer,
visualization, querying, updating,
information privacy and data source
4. Data Challenges
While dealing with large amounts of information we face such challenges as volume, variety, velocity
and veracity that are also known as 4V of Big Data.
Volume : refers to the large amount of data, especially, machine-generated.
Variety : is related to different types and forms of data sources:
- structured (e.g. financial data) and
- unstructured (social media conversations, photos, videos, voice recordings and
others).
Velocity : refers to the speed of new data generation and distribution.
Veracity: refers to the complexity of data which may lead to a lack of quality and accuracy
5. Why is Big Data problem?
A problem with big data is that it grows constantly and organizations often fail to capture the
opportunities and extract actionable data. Companies often fail to recognize on where they
need to allocate their resources. This failure in allocating the resources results in not making the
most of the information
6. What is Data Visualization in big data?
Data visualization is a general term that describes any effort to help people understand the
significance of data by placing it in a visual context. Patterns, trends and correlations that might
go undetected in text-based data can be exposed and recognized easier with data visualization
software
7. What are the benefits of data visualization?
o
Faster Action. The human brain tends to process visual information far more easily than written
information.
o
Communicate Findings in Constructive Ways.
o
Understand Connections Between Operations and Results.
o
Embrace Emerging Trends
o
Interact With Data
o
Create New Discussion
8. Why is data visualization important?
Meeting the need for speed.
Understanding the data
Addressing data quality
Dealing with outliers
Displaying meaningful results

14. visualized representation of data is abstract and extremely limited by one’s perception capabilities and
requests (see Fig. 4).
So human perception capabilities are not sufficient embrace large amount of data
15. types of data to be visualized:
• Univariate data One dimensional arrays, time series, etc.
• Two-dimensional data Point two-dimensional graphs, geographical
coordinates, etc.
• Multidimensional data Financial indicators, results of experiments, etc.
• Texts and hypertexts Newspaper articles, web documents, etc.
• Hierarchical and links The structure subordination in the organization, e-mails,
documents and hyperlinks, etc.
• Algorithms and programs Information flows, debug operations, etc.
16. Types of visualization techniques:
1) 2D/3D standard figure:
May be implemented as bars, line graphs, various charts, etc. (see Fig. 5). The main drawback of this type is the
complexity of the acceptable visualization for complicated data structures.
17. (.2 Geometric transformations :
This technique represents information as scatter diagram. This type is geared towards a multi-dimensional data
set’s transformation in order to display it in Cartesian and non-Cartesian geometric spaces.
18. (.3 Display icons:
this type displays the values of elements of multidimensional data in properties of images. Such images may include
human faces, arrows, stars, etc. Images can be grouped together for holistic analysis. The result of the visualization is
a texture pattern, which varies according to the specific characteristics of the data
19. (.4 Methods focused on the pixels
The main idea is to display the values in each dimension into the colored pixel and to merge some of
them according to specific measurements. Since one pixel is used to display a single value, therefore
visualization of large amounts of data can be reachable with this methodology;
20. (.5 Hierarchical images :
These type methods are used with the hierarchical structured data.
21. (.6 Tag cloud:
Tag cloud is used in text analysis, with a weighting value dependent on the frequency of use (citation)
of a particular word or phrase. It consists of an accumulation of lexical items (words, symbols or
combination of the two). This tech-nique is commonly integrated with web sources to quickly
familiarize visitors with the content via key words.
22. (.7 Clustergram :
Clustergram is an imaging technique used in cluster analysis by means of representing the relation of
individual elements of the data as they change their number. Choosing the optimal number of clusters
is also an important component of cluster analysis.
23. (.8 Motion charts :
Motion charts allow effective exploration of large and multivariate data and interact with it utilizing
dynamic 2D bubble charts. The blobs (bubbles—central objects of this technique) can be controlled due
to variable mapping for which it is designed. For instance, motion charts graphical data tools are
provided by Google , amCharts and IBM Many Eyes.
24. (.9 Dashboard:
Dashboard enables the display of log files of various formats and filter data based on chosen data
ranges. Traditionally, dashboard consists of three layers: data (raw data), analysis (includes formulas
and imported data from data layer to tables) and presentation (graphical representation based on the
analysis layer).
25. (.10 COLOR – SIZE – CONNECTION –SIMILARITY :
Nowadays, there are many publicly available tools to create meaningful and attractive visualizations.
Such as manipulation of size, color and connections between visual objects (see Fig. 14).
people tend to perceive the world in a form of holistic ordered configuration rather than constituent fragments
Otherwise, too many colors, shapes, and interconnections may cause difficulties in the comprehension of data, or
some visual elements may be too complex to recognize
27. (.12 Text Analytics: Visualizing Natural Language
Text Annotation and Markup
Named entity recognition (NER)
Named entity recognition (NER) seeks to locate and classify atomic elements in text into predefined
categories such as the names of persons, organizations, locations, etc. The list of categories can be
extended to include disease names in the biomedical paradigm.
Quantities and Dates are often included in NER systems
28. Research indicates that NER systems developed for one domain do not typically perform
well on other domains.
Early work in NER systems in the 1990s was aimed primarily at extraction from
journalistic articles.
Attention then turned to processing of military dispatches and reports.
Since about 1998, there has been a great deal of interest in entity identification in the
molecular biology, bioinformatics, and medical natural language processing
communities.The most common entity of interest in that domain has been names of
genes and gene products.
