The continuous increase of online data with consumers’ and experts’ reviews and preferences is a potential tool for sensory characterization. The present work aims to overview the Swedish beer market and understand the sensory fingerprint of Swedish beers based on text data extracted from the Swedish alcohol retail monopoly (Systembolaget) website. Different multivariate strategies such as heatmaps, correspondence analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis were used to understand the sensory space of the different beer styles. Additionally, sensory space for specific hop cultivars was also investigated. Results highlighted Gothenburg as the main producing area in Sweden. The style Indian Pale Ale (IPA) is the largest available at the retail monopoly. From a sensory perspective, commonalities and differences were found between beer types and styles. Based on the aroma description, different types of ale and lager can cluster together (such as Porter and Stout and Dark lagers). Additionally, an associative relationship between specific aromas and hop cultivars from text data information was successfully achieved.

AbstractThe present investigation indicates hidden relationships between the several clinical parameters usually monitored on prolactinoma patients using non-hierarchical cluster analysis. The major goal of the chemometric data mining is to offer a possible mode of optimization of the monitoring procedure by selecting a reduced number of health status indicators. The intelligent data analysis reveals the formation of three patterns of prolactinoma patients each one of them described by a set of clinical parameters. Thus, better strategies for considering patients with this diagnosis could be developed and clinically applied.

Clustering analysis plays a very important role in the field of data mining, image segmentation and pattern recognition. The method of cluster analysis is introduced to analyze NetEYun music data. In addition, different types of music data are clustered to find the commonness among the same kind of music. A music data-oriented clustering analysis method is proposed: Firstly, the audio beat period is calculated by reading the audio file data, and the emotional features of the audio are extracted; Secondly, the audio beat period is calculated by Fourier transform. Finally, a clustering algorithm is designed to obtain the clustering results of music data.

<em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</em> (TB) is among the most common of infectious diseases that cause death, and as many as one-third of the world’s population may be infected. This work presents 17 novel hydrazide agents formed by focused in silico data mining utilizing search parameters restricted to substituent replacement only. Substituent substitution has been highly successful in design of novel antibacterial and antiviral drugs. This diverse set of hydrazide constructs possess molecular properties indicating favorable bioavailability with excellent intestinal absorption for oral administration. All agents have zero violations of the Rule of 5, indicating favorable druglikeness. Important pharmaceutical properties including polar surface area, Log P, and formula weight were determined and compared to that of the parent structure of isoniazid by hierarchical cluster analysis and discriminant analysis. The average Log P with range is -0.258 and -2.165 to 1.373, respectively. The average polar surface area (PSA) with range is 75.19 A2 and 55.121 A2 to 94.036 A2, respectively. The diverse range of PSA and Log P, with other descriptors, portend a versatile group of hydrazide drugs having substantial potential to expand the application and effectiveness for clinical treatment of multi-organ infected TB patients. Analysis of similarity indicated that all 17 agents are significantly similar to isoniazid, however discriminant analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis are able to differentiate isoniazid based upon molecular properties. Molecular weight and number of atoms were highly correlated by Pearson r (r &gt; 0.9000), with Log P moderately correlated (r &gt; 0.5500) to number of atoms, molecular weight, and volume. Seventeen hydrazide compounds (success rate of approximately 38%) having diverse pharmaceutical properties resulted from substituent data mining with potential for clinical application.

The uses of data mining methods to support workers decide on reasonable cutting conditions has been investigated in this work. The aim of our research is to find new knowledge by applying data mining techniques to a tool catalog. Hierarchical and non-hierarchical clustering of catalog data as well as multiple regression analysis was used. The K-means method was used and on the shape presented in the catalog data and grouped end mills from the viewpoint of the tool's shape, which here means the ratio of dimensions has been focused. The numbers of variables were decreased using hierarchical cluster analysis. In addition, an expression for calculating the better cutting conditions was found and the calculated values were compared with the catalog values. There were three cutting conditions: conditions recommended in the catalog, conditions derived by data mining, and proven cutting conditions for die machining (rough processing).

Data-mining methods were used to support decisions about reasonable cutting conditions. The aim of our research was to extract new knowledge by applying data-mining techniques to a tool catalog. We used both hierarchical and non-hierarchical clustering of catalog data and also used applied multiple regression analysis. We focused on the shape element of catalog data and we visually grouped end mills from the viewpoint of tool shape, which here meant the ratio of dimensions, by using the k-means method. We then decreased the number of variables by using hierarchical cluster analysis. We also found an expression for calculating the best cutting conditions, and we compared the calculated values with the catalog values. We did 15 minutes of cutting work using three kinds of cutting conditions: conditions recommended in the catalog, conditions derived by data-mining, and proven cutting conditions for die machining (rough processing).

This study is based on the analysis of the status quo of the research on liver cancer syndromes, starting with the clinical objective and true four-diagnosis information of TCM inpatients with primary liver cancer, using computer data mining technology to analyze and summarize the syndrome rules from the bottom to the top. Let the data itself show the essence of liver cancer syndrome. First, with the help of hierarchical cluster analysis, we can understand the general characteristics through the rough preliminary classification of the four-diagnosis information of liver cancer patients. Then, with the help of the emerging and mature hidden structure model analysis in recent years, through data modeling, the classification of common syndromes of liver cancer and the corresponding relationship with the four-diagnosis information are comprehensively analyzed. Finally, considering the inherent shortcomings of implicit structure and hierarchical clustering based on the assumption that there is a unique one-to-one correspondence between the four diagnostic information factors and the class (or hidden class) when classifying, we plan to use factor analysis and joint cluster analysis, as supplementary means to further explore the classification of liver cancer syndromes and the corresponding relationship with the four-diagnosis information.

An attempt has been made to identify coherent zones of southwest monsoon rainfall over the Indian region by employing hierarchical cluster analysis.  Examination of dendrograms produced by different fusion strategies revealed the presence of 13 nuclei clusters of meteorological subdivisions. Formation of these nuclei clusters could be interpreted by their average principal component (PC) scores and associated synoptic features of PCs.  Higher level inter-nuclei joinings have occurred in various fusion strategies to produce different types of clusters of subdivisions.                 A flexible strategy providing well separated groups of meteorological sub-divisions has been found to be suitable. The method has identified six homogeneous regions of rainfall over India. The meteorological subdivisions have been found to be evenly distributed in these coherent zones. The clustering obtained by this method has been reasonable and largely interpretable.

In this article we proposed a new method of non-hierarchical cluster analysis using k-nearest-neighbor graph and discussed it with respect to vegetation classification. The method of k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) classification was originally developed in 1951 (Fix, Hodges, 1951). Later a term “k-NN graph” and a few algorithms of k-NN clustering appeared (Cover, Hart, 1967; Brito et al., 1997). In biology k-NN is used in analysis of protein structures and genome sequences. Most of k-NN clustering algorithms build «excessive» graph firstly, so called hypergraph, and then truncate it to subgraphs, just partitioning and coarsening hypergraph. We developed other strategy, the “upward” clustering in forming (assembling consequentially) one cluster after the other. Until today graph-based cluster analysis has not been considered concerning classification of vegetation datasets.
