研究范围与定位

JDIS devotes itself to the study and application of the theories, methods, techniques, services, infrastructural facilities using big data to support knowledge discovery for decision & policy making. The basic emphasis is big data-based, analytics centered, knowledge discovery driven, and decision making supporting. The special effort is on the knowledge discovery to detect and predict structures, trends, behaviors, relations, evolutions and disruptions in research, innovation, business, politics, security, media and communications, and social development, where the big data may include metadata or full content data, text or non-textural data, structured or non-structural data, domain specific or cross-domain data, and dynamic or interactive data.The main areas of interest are:(1) New theories, methods, and techniques of big data based data mining, knowledge discovery, and informatics, including but not limited to scientometrics, communication analysis, social network analysis, tech & industry analysis, competitive intelligence, knowledge mapping, evidence based policy analysis, and predictive analysis.(2) New methods, architectures, and facilities to develop or improve knowledge infrastructure capable to support knowledge organization and sophisticated analytics, including but not limited to ontology construction, knowledge organization, semantic linked data, knowledge integration and fusion, semantic retrieval, domain specific knowledge infrastructure, and semantic sciences.(3) New mechanisms, methods, and tools to embed knowledge analytics and knowledge discovery into actual operation, service, or managerial processes, including but not limited to knowledge assisted scientific discovery, data mining driven intelligent workflows in learning, communications, and management.Specific topic areas may include:Knowledge organizationKnowledge discovery and data miningKnowledge integration and fusionSemantic Web metricsScientometricsAnalytic and diagnostic informetricsCompetitive intelligencePredictive analysisSocial network analysis and metricsSemantic and interactively analytic retrievalEvidence-based policy analysisIntelligent knowledge productionKnowledge-driven workflow management and decision-makingKnowledge-driven collaboration and its managementDomain knowledge infrastructure with knowledge fusion and analyticsDevelopment of data and information services
