    Due to enormous quantities of spatial satellite images, telecommunication images, health related tools etc., it is often impractical for users to have detailed and thorough examination of spatial data (S). Large dataset is very common and pervasive in a number of application areas. Discovering or predicting patterns from these datasets is very vital. This research focused on developing new methods, models and techniques for accomplishing advanced spatial data mining (ASDM) tasks. The algorithms were designed to challenge state-of-the-art data technologies and they are tested with randomly generated and actual real-world data. Two main approaches were adopted to achieve the objectives (1) identifying the actual data types (DTs), data structures and spatial content of a given dataset (to make our model versatile and robust) and (2) integrating these data types into an appropriate database management system (DBMS) framework, for easy management and manipulation. These two approaches helped to discover the general and varying types of patterns that exist within any given dataset non-spatial, spatial or even temporal (because spatial data are always influenced by temporal agents) datasets. An iterative method was adopted for system development methodology in this study. The method was adopted as a strategy to combat the irregularity that often exists within spatial datasets. In the course of this study, some of the challenges we encountered which also doubled as current challenges facing spatial data mining includes: (a) time complexity in availing useful data for analysis, (b) time complexity in loading data to storage and (c) difficulties in discovering spatial, non-spatial and temporal correlations between different data objects. However, despite the above challenges, there are some opportunities that spatial data can benefit from including: Cloud computing, Spark technology, Parallelisation, and Bulk-loading methods. Techniques and application areas of spatial data mining (SDM) were identified and their strength and limitations were equally documented. Finally, new methods and algorithms for mining very large data of spatial/non-spatial bias were created. The proposed models/systems are documented in the sections as follows: (a) Development of a new technique for parallel indexing of large dataset (PaX-DBSCAN), (b) Development of new techniques for clustering (X-DBSCAN) in a learning process, (c) Development of a new technique for detecting human skin in an image, (d) Development of a new technique for finding face in an image, (e) Development of a novel technique for management of large spatial and non-spatial datasets (aX-tree). The most prominent among our methods is the new structure used in (c) above -- packed maintained k-dimensional tree (Pmkd-tree), for fast spatial indexing and querying. The structure is a combination system that combines all the proposed algorithms to produce one solid, standard, useful and quality system. The intention of the new final algorithm (system) is to combine the entire initial proposed algorithms to come up with one strong generic effective tool for predicting large dataset SDM area, which it is capable of finding patterns that exist among spatial or non-spatial objects in a DBMS. In addition to Pmkd-tree, we also implemented a novel spatial structure, packed quad-tree (Pquad-Tree), to balance and speed up the performance of the regular quad-tree. Our systems so far have shown a manifestation of efficiency in terms of performance, storage and speed. The final Systems (Pmkd-tree and Pquad-Tree) are generic systems that are flexible, robust, light and stable. They are explicit spatial models for analysing any given problem and for predicting objects as spatially distributed events, using basic SDM algorithms. They can be applied to pattern matching, image processing, computer vision, bioinformatics, information retrieval, machine learning (classification and clustering) and many other computational tasks

    In the last decade, wireless or wired sensor networks have attracted much attention. However, most designs target general sensor network issues including protocol stack (routing, MAC, etc.) and security issues. This book focuses on the close integration of sensing, networking, and smart signal processing via machine learning. Based on their world-class research, the authors present the fundamentals of intelligent sensor networks. They cover sensing and sampling, distributed signal processing, and intelligent signal learning. In addition, they present cutting-edge research results from leading experts

    Online learning on the programmable dataplane

    This thesis makes the case for managing computer networks with datadriven methods automated statistical inference and control based on measurement data and runtime observations—and argues for their tight integration with programmable dataplane hardware to make management decisions faster and from more precise data. Optimisation, defence, and measurement of networked infrastructure are each challenging tasks in their own right, which are currently dominated by the use of hand-crafted heuristic methods. These become harder to reason about and deploy as networks scale in rates and number of forwarding elements, but their design requires expert knowledge and care around unexpected protocol interactions. This makes tailored, per-deployment or -workload solutions infeasible to develop. Recent advances in machine learning offer capable function approximation and closed-loop control which suit many of these tasks. New, programmable dataplane hardware enables more agility in the network— runtime reprogrammability, precise traffic measurement, and low latency on-path processing. The synthesis of these two developments allows complex decisions to be made on previously unusable state, and made quicker by offloading inference to the network. To justify this argument, I advance the state of the art in data-driven defence of networks, novel dataplane-friendly online reinforcement learning algorithms, and in-network data reduction to allow classification of switchscale data. Each requires co-design aware of the network, and of the failure modes of systems and carried traffic. To make online learning possible in the dataplane, I use fixed-point arithmetic and modify classical (non-neural) approaches to take advantage of the SmartNIC compute model and make use of rich device local state. I show that data-driven solutions still require great care to correctly design, but with the right domain expertise they can improve on pathological cases in DDoS defence, such as protecting legitimate UDP traffic. In-network aggregation to histograms is shown to enable accurate classification from fine temporal effects, and allows hosts to scale such classification to far larger flow counts and traffic volume. Moving reinforcement learning to the dataplane is shown to offer substantial benefits to stateaction latency and online learning throughput versus host machines; allowing policies to react faster to fine-grained network events. The dataplane environment is key in making reactive online learning feasible—to port further algorithms and learnt functions, I collate and analyse the strengths of current and future hardware designs, as well as individual algorithms

    Abstract— Online transportation has become a basic requirement of the general public in support of all activities to go to work, school or vacation to the sights. Public transportation services compete to provide the best service so that consumers feel comfortable using the services offered, so that all activities are noticed, one of them is the search for the shortest route in picking the buyer or delivering to the destination. Node Combination method can minimize memory usage and this methode is more optimal when compared to A* and Ant Colony in the shortest route search like Dijkstra algorithm, but can’t store the history node that has been passed. Therefore, using node combination algorithm is very good in searching the shortest distance is not the shortest route. This paper is structured to modify the node combination algorithm to solve the problem of finding the shortest route at the dynamic location obtained from the transport fleet by displaying the nodes that have the shortest distance and will be implemented in the geographic information system in the form of map to facilitate the use of the system.
