Geographic data is growing in size and variety, which calls for big data management tools and analysis methods. To efficiently integrate information from high dimensional data, this paper explicitly proposes array-based modeling. A large portion of Earth observations and model simulations are naturally arrays once digitalized. This paper discusses the challenges in using arrays such as the discretization of continuous spatiotemporal phenomena, irregular dimensions, regridding, high-dimensional data analysis, and large-scale data management. We define categories and applications of typical array operations, compare their implementation in open-source software, and demonstrate dimension reduction and array regridding in study cases using Landsat and MODIS imagery. It turns out that arrays are a convenient data structure for representing and analysing many spatiotemporal phenomena. Although the array model simplifies data organization, array properties like the meaning of grid cell values are rarely being made explicit in practice.

Machine learning has been proven to be effective in various application areas, such as object and speech recognition on mobile systems. Since a critical key to machine learning success is the availability of large training data, many datasets are being disclosed and published online. From a data consumer or manager point of view, measuring data quality is an important first step in the learning process. We need to determine which datasets to use, update, and maintain. However, not many practical ways to measure data quality are available today, especially when it comes to large-scale high-dimensional data, such as images and videos. This paper proposes two data quality measures that can compute class separability and in-class variability, the two important aspects of data quality, for a given dataset. Classical data quality measures tend to focus only on class separability; however, we suggest that in-class variability is another important data quality factor. We provide efficient algorithms to compute our quality measures based on random projections and bootstrapping with statistical benefits on large-scale high-dimensional data. In experiments, we show that our measures are compatible with classical measures on small-scale data and can be computed much more efficiently on large-scale high-dimensional datasets.

Dimensionality reduction refers to a set of mathematical techniques used to reduce complexity of the original high-dimensional data, while preserving its selected properties. Improvements in simulation strategies and experimental data collection methods are resulting in a deluge of heterogeneous and high-dimensional data, which often makes dimensionality reduction the only viable way to gain qualitative and quantitative understanding of the data. However, existing dimensionality reduction software often does not scale to datasets arising in real-life applications, which may consist of thousands of points with millions of dimensions. In this paper, we propose a parallel framework for dimensionality reduction of large-scale data. We identify key components underlying the spectral dimensionality reduction techniques, and propose their efficient parallel implementation. We show that the resulting framework can be used to process datasets consisting of millions of points when executed on a 16,000-core cluster, which is beyond the reach of currently available methods. To further demonstrate applicability of our framework we perform dimensionality reduction of 75,000 images representing morphology evolution during manufacturing of organic solar cells in order to identify how processing parameters affect morphology evolution.

Now a day, all the organizations collecting huge volume of data without knowing its usefulness. The fast development of Internet helps the organizations to capture data in many different formats through Internet of Things (IoT), social media and from other disparate sources. The dimension of the dataset increases day by day at an extraordinary rate resulting in large scale dataset with high dimensionality. The present paper reviews the opportunities and challenges of feature selection for processing the high dimensional data with reduced complexity and improved accuracy. In the modern big data world the feature selection has a significance in reducing the dimensionality and overfitting of the learning process. Many feature selection methods have been proposed by researchers for obtaining more relevant features especially from the big datasets that helps to provide accurate learning results without degradation in performance. This paper discusses the importance of feature selection, basic feature selection approaches, centralized and distributed big data processing using Hadoop and Spark, challenges of feature selection and provides the summary of the related research work done by various researchers. As a result, the big data analysis with the feature selection improves the accuracy of the learning.

Detection and realization of new trends from corpus are achieved through Emergent Trend Detection (ETD) methods, which is a principal application of text mining. This article discusses the influence of the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) on Dynamic Adaptive Self Organizing Maps (DASOM) in the design of an efficient ETD scheme by optimizing the neural parameters of the network. This hybrid machine learning scheme is designed to accomplish maximum accuracy with minimum computational time. The efficiency and scalability of the proposed scheme is analyzed and compared with standard algorithms such as SOM, DASOM and Linear Regression analysis. The system is trained and tested on DBLP database, University of Trier, Germany. The superiority of hybrid DASOM algorithm over the well-known algorithms in handling high dimensional large-scale data to detect emergent trends from the corpus is established in this article.
