Service-oriented discovery of knowledge : foundations, implementations and applications
In this thesis we will investigate
how a popular new way of distributed computing called service
orientation can be used within the field of Knowledge Discovery. We
critically investigate its principles and present models for developing
withing this paradigm. We then apply this model to create a web service
caled Fantom, that mines subgroups in a ranked list of identifiers,
based on their score. The descriptions of these subgroups are done in
ontologies to provide the scientist a description in a standardized and
familiar language. Finally, Fantom is tested on two different data sets
from the field of life-sciences; one concerning gene data, the other
concerning SNP data.LEI Universiteit LeidenAlgorithm
