Currently, Gyeongnam province is executing the social index survey every year to the provincials. But, this survey has the limit of the analysis as execution of the different survey per 3 year cycles. The solution of this problem is data fusion. Data fusion is the process of combining multiple data in order to provide information of tactical value to the user. But, data fusion doesn#t mean the ultimate result. Therefore, efficient analysis for the data fusion is also important. In this study, we present data fusion method of statistical survey data. Also, we suggest application methodology of association rule mining by clustering through data fusion of statistical survey data.

One of the best important thing in data mining process is the quality of data used. When we perform the mining on data with excellent quality, the potential value of data mining can be improved. In this paper, we propose the data fusion technique for data enrichment that one phase can improve data quality in KDD process. We attempted to add k-NN technique to the regression technique, to improve performance of fusion technique through reduction of the loss of information. Simulations were performed to compare the proposed data fusion technique with the regression technique. As a result, the newly proposed data fusion technique is characterized with low MSE in continuous fusion variables.

Data mining is the work to extract information from existing data file. So, the one of best important thing in data mining process is the quality of data to be used. In this thesis, we propose the data fusion technique using decision rule for data enrichment that one phase to improve data quality in KDD process. Simulations were performed to compare the proposed data fusion technique with the existing techniques. As a result, our data fusion technique using decision rule is characterized with low MSE or misclassification rate in fusion variables.

Data fusion is defined as the process of combining data and information from different sources for the effectiveness of the usage of useful information contents. In this paper, we propose a data fusion algorithm using k-means clustering method for data enrichment to improve data quality in knowledge discovery in database(KDD) process. An empirical study was conducted to compare the proposed data fusion technique with the existing techniques and shows that the newly proposed clustering data fusion technique has low MSE in continuous fusion variables.

In this paper, we design an intelligent agent system with the data mining module and information fusion module as the core components of the system and investigate the possibility for the medical expert system. In the data mining module, fuzzy neural network, OFUN-NET analyzes multi-view data and produces fuzzy cluster knowledge base. In the information fusion module and application module, they serve the diagnosis result with possibility degree and useful information for diagnosis, such as uncertainty decision status or detection of asymmetry. We also present the experiment results on the BI-RADS-based feature data set selected form DDSM benchmark database. They show higher classification accuracy than conventional methods and the feasibility of the system as a computer aided diagnosis system.

Data fusion is the process of combining multiple data in order to produce information of tactical value to the user. Data fusion is generally defined as the use of techniques that combine data from multiple sources and gather that information in order to achieve inferences. Data fusion is also called data combination or data matching. Data fusion is divided in five branch types which are exact matching, judgemental matching, probability matching, statistical matching, and data linking. In this paper, we develop was macro program for statistical matching which is one of five branch types for data fusion. And then we apply data fusion and association rule techniques to environmental data.

This paper explores the utility of a new classifier fusion approach to discrimination. Multiple classifier fusion, a popular approach in the field of pattern recognition, uses estimates of each individual classifier's local accuracy on training data sets. In this paper we investigate the effectiveness of fusion methods compared to individual algorithms, including the artificial neural network and k-nearest neighbor techniques. Moreover, we propose an efficient meta-classifier architecture based on an approximation of the posterior Bayes probabilities for learning the oracle.

Today, the statistical survey has been carried out variously for the decision-making and administration of the organization. We use the different items in the statistical survey according to the purpose of study. Currently, Gyeongnam province is executing the social index survey to the provincials every year. But, this survey has the limit of the analysis as execution of the different survey per 3 year cycles. The solution for this problem is data fusion technique. Data fusion is generally defined as the use of techniques that collect to combine data including multiple sources in order to raise the quality of information. But, data fusion doesn't mean the ultimate result. Therefor, efficient analysis for the fused data is also important. In this study, we suggest the application methodology of neural network by latent variable through the fused data in statistical survey.

Predicting locations of users with portable devices such as IP phones, smart-phones, iPads and iPods in public wireless local area networks (WLANs) plays a crucial role in location management and network resource allocation. Many techniques in machine learning and data mining, such as sequential pattern mining and clustering, have been widely used. However, these approaches have two deficiencies. First, because they are based on profiles of individual mobility behaviors, a sequential pattern technique may fail to predict new users or users with movement on novel paths. Second, using similar mobility behaviors in a cluster for predicting the movement of users may cause significant degradation in accuracy owing to indistinguishable regular movement and random movement. In this paper, we propose a novel fusion technique that utilizes mobility rules discovered from multiple similar users by combining clustering and sequential pattern mining. The proposed technique with two algorithms, named the clustering-based-sequential-pattern-mining (CSPM) and sequential-pattern-mining-based-clustering (SPMC), can deal with the lack of information in a personal profile and avoid some noise due to random movements by users. Experimental results show that our approach outperforms existing approaches in terms of efficiency and prediction accuracy.

As many applications are possible now in mobile environment with the trend of mobile convergence, diverse applications in healthcare industry are also possible in mobile devices. Though lots of researches on mobile and health services are introduced, they are limited to specific area or techniques. This study shows possible directions of fusion between mobile technologies and health services in the future using a data mining technique called association rule analysis. The data used in this study is collected from web pages containing key words related to mobile technologies and health services. The analysis shows that current cases of fusion between monitoring based telemedicine and patients. It also shows another case of fusion between mobile hospital and medical screen charts. These show that fusion between mobile technologies and health services already began in industry. Association rules are found between well-being, city, diet, and sleep. The association rules containing security and privacy, though their associations are not so strong, also show that security and privacy of patient information should be protected in the future. The results show that the fusion of mobile technologies and health services is expected to provide health services to more users and larger areas. It is also expected to create new diverse business models in the future.
