Data Analysis/4 Data Mining
Data mining (sometimes called knowledge discovery) is the process of analyzing and summarizing data into useful information which can be used to understand common features, the origin of data and to extract hidden predictive information. Data mining is used in science, engineering, modeling and analysis of financial markets.

Information Technology Audit
An information technology audit, or information systems audit, is an examination of the management controls within an Information technology (IT) infrastructure and business applications. The evaluation of evidence obtained determines if the information systems are safeguarding assets, maintaining data integrity, and operating effectively to achieve the organization's goals or objectives. These reviews may be performed in conjunction with a financial statement audit, internal audit, or other form of attestation engagement. IT audits are also known as automated data processing audits (ADP audits) and computer audits. They were formerly called electronic data processing audits (EDP audits).

Application of Mobile Operators’ Data in Modern Geographical Research
Mobile operators’ data are one type of Big Data. These are any data about events related to the use of a mobile phone. These data include subscriber identifiers and associated time and location attributes. Big Data in general usually includes datasets with sizes beyond the ability of commonly used software tools to capture, curate, manage, and process data within a tolerable elapsed time. Big Data can be described by the following key characteristics: volume, variety, velocity, veracity, value, variability etc. Mobile operators’ data are supplied by the Mobile Network Operators. The main distinguishing features of the operator are, firstly, the possession of a state license to use the radio frequency spectrum, and, secondly, the possession or control over the elements of the network infrastructure necessary to provide services to subscribers in the authorized radio frequency spectrum. The smallest structural territorial element for cellular communication systems is a cell; its dimensions can be different (250 by 250 m, 500 by 500 m, etc.).

Consensus Big Data Clustering for Bayesian Mixture Models
In the context of big-data analysis, the clustering technique holds significant importance for the effective categorization and organization of extensive datasets. However, pinpointing the ideal number of clusters and handling high-dimensional data can be challenging. To tackle these issues, several strategies have been suggested, such as a consensus clustering ensemble that yields more significant outcomes compared to individual models. Another valuable technique for cluster analysis is Bayesian mixture modelling, which is known for its adaptability in determining cluster numbers.

Heart Rate Variability towards Noninvasive Glucose Measurement
Heart rate variability (HRV) is defined by the heart rate variations caused by the periodic change of heart rhythm over time in the absence of physiological activity, postural changes, and emotional stimuli. This labels HRV as a noninvasive marker of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) function. Heart rate variability (HRV) parameters can reveal the performance of the autonomic nervous system and possibly estimate the type of its malfunction, such as that of detecting the blood glucose level.

Accurate and Invertible Sketch for Super Spread Detection
Super spread detection has been widely applied in network management, recommender systems, and cyberspace security. It is more complicated than heavy hitter owing to the requirement of duplicate removal. Accurately detecting a super spread in real-time with small memory demands remains a nontrivial yet challenging issue.
