Combined use of machine learning and large data allows us to analyze data and find explanatory models that would not be possible with traditional techniques, which is basic within the principles of symmetry. The present study focuses on the analysis of the scientific production and performance of the Machine Learning and Big Data (MLBD) concepts. A bibliometric methodology of scientific mapping has been used, based on processes of estimation, quantification, analytical tracking, and evaluation of scientific research. A total of 4240 scientific publications from the Web of Science (WoS) have been analyzed. Our results show a constant and ascending evolution of the scientific production on MLBD, 2018 and 2019 being the most productive years. The productions are mainly in English language. The topics are variable in the different periods analyzed, where “machine-learning” is the one that shows the greatest bibliometric indicators, it is found in most of motor topics and is the one that offers the greatest line of continuity between the different periods. It can be concluded that research on MLBD is of interest and relevance to the scientific community, which focuses its studies on the branch of machine-learning.

Se ha buscado analizar la producción científica sobre el término Open Government en la base de datos Web of Science durante el período de 2010 a 2016, usando como filtro de búsqueda los títulos de los artículos en todas las lenguas y considerando la dispersión de la producción intelectual internacional. La investigación seleccionó las revistas más relevantes del área de ciencias sociales aplicadas, observando el impacto de esas revistas en esta área de conocimiento. La investigación es de carácter cuantitativo, pues se analizó la producción científica a través del acceso en línea a la base de datos Web of Science que alcanzó hasta 3.165 registros totales. Para hacer el análisis de la dispersión de la literatura afectada se aplicó la ley bibliométrica de Bradford. Se empleó como herramienta de hoja de cálculo para analizar los datos obtenidos en la minería, así como para tabularlos y tratarlos. El trabajo revela que, a lo largo de los años, las publicaciones muestran una aparición no lineal, registrándose un aumento significativo en la producción relativa al contexto internacional. De acuerdo con el núcleo de la ley de Bradford, se demuestra que el término Open Government muestra calidad en las publicaciones científicas en las que se difunde, pero que aún se encuentra en una fase de lucha por su espacio en las publicaciones científicas dentro de una ciencia actual en transformación.

The term “data science” refers to an emerging field of research and practice that focuses on obtaining, processing, visualizing, analyzing, preserving, and re-using large collections of information. A related term, “big data,” has been used to refer to one of the important challenges faced by data scientists in many applied environments: the need to analyze large data sources, in certain cases using high-speed, real-time data analysis techniques. Data science encompasses much more than big data, however, as a result of many advancements in cognate fields such as computer science and statistics. Data science has also benefited from the widespread availability of inexpensive computing hardware—a development that has enabled “cloud-based” services for the storage and analysis of large data sets. The techniques and tools of data science have broad applicability in the sciences. Within the field of psychology, data science offers new opportunities for data collection and data analysis that have begun to streamline and augment efforts to investigate the brain and behavior. The tools of data science also enable new areas of research, such as computational neuroscience. As an example of the impact of data science, psychologists frequently use predictive analysis as an investigative tool to probe the relationships between a set of independent variables and one or more dependent variables. While predictive analysis has traditionally been accomplished with techniques such as multiple regression, recent developments in the area of machine learning have put new predictive tools in the hands of psychologists. These machine learning tools relax distributional assumptions and facilitate exploration of non-linear relationships among variables. These tools also enable the analysis of large data sets by opening options for parallel processing. In this article, a range of relevant areas from data science is reviewed for applicability to key research problems in psychology including large-scale data collection, exploratory data analysis, confirmatory data analysis, and visualization. This bibliography covers data mining, machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, Bayesian data analysis, visualization, crowdsourcing, web scraping, open source software, application programming interfaces, and research resources such as journals and textbooks.

Ticks are distributed all over the world and significantly affect human and animal health. Increasing public health concern with tick borne diseases requires the strategic control of ticks in animals that transmit diseases to humans. The aim of this article is to present a bibliometric analysis of the scientific production related to tick control, using bibliometrics as an instrument of analysis to measure scientific activity. To identify the studies , a search was made on four Scopus databases, Web of Science, Medline / Pubmed and Science Direct. Of 1764 publications, only 480 were analyzed after the exclusion of certain productions according to previously defined criteria. It was pointed out that the identified studies have great relevance for the control of ticks, considering that scientific publications are important markers of the activity of production and development of the field of knowledge.

Processing big data requires serious computing resources. Because of this challenge, big data processing is an issue not only for algorithms but also for computing resources. This article analyzes a large amount of data from different points of view. One perspective is the processing of reduced collections of big data with less computing resources. Therefore, the study analyzed 40 GB data to test various strategies to reduce data processing. Thus, the goal is to reduce this data, but not to compromise on the detection and model learning in machine learning. Several alternatives were analyzed, and it is found that in many cases and types of settings, data can be reduced to some extent without compromising detection efficiency. Tests of 200 attributes showed that with a performance loss of only 4%, more than 80% of the data could be ignored. The results found in the study, thus provide useful insights into large data analytics.

AbstractMost vehicle-gearboxes operating today are designed for a limited service-life. On the one hand, this creates significant potential for decreasing cost and mass as well as reduction of the carbon-footprint. On the other hand, this causes a rising risk of failure with increasing operating time of the machine. Especially if a failure can result in a high economic loss, this fact creates a conflict of goals. On the one hand, the machine should only be maintained or replaced when necessary and, on the other hand, the probability of a failure increases with longer operating times. Therefore, a method is desirable, making it possible to predict the remaining service-life and state of health with as little effort as possible.Centerpiece of gearboxes are the gears. A failure of these components usually causes the whole gearbox to fail. The fatigue life analysis deals with the dimensioning of gears according to the expected loads and the required service-life. Unfortunately, there is very little possibility to validate the technical design during operation, today. Hence, the goal of this paper is to present a method, enabling the prediction of the remaining-service-life and state-of-health of gears during operation. Within this method big-data and machine-learning approaches are used. The method is designed in a way, enabling an easy transfer to other machine elements and kinds of machinery.

Processing of a large data set which is known for today as big data processing is still a problem that has not yet a well-defined solution. The data can be both structured and unstructured. For the structured part, eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is a major tool that freely allows document owners to describe and organize their data using their markup tags. One major problem, however, behind this freedom lies in the big data retrieving process. The same or similar information that are described using the different tags or different structures may not be retrieved if the query statements contains different keywords to the one used in the markup tags. The best way to solve this problem is to specify a standard set of the markup tags for each problem domain. The creation of such a standard set if done manually requires a lot of hard work and is a time consuming process. In addition, it may be hard to define terms that are acceptable by all people. This research proposes a model for a new technique, XML Tag Recommendation (XTR) that aims to solve this problem. This technique applies the idea of Case Base Reasoning (CBR) by collecting the most used tags in each domain as a case. These tags come from the collection of related words in WordNet. The WordCount that is the web site to find the frequency of words is applied to choose the most used one. The input (problem) to the XTR system is an XML document contains the tags specified by the document owners. The solution is a set of the recommended tags, which is the most used tags, for the problem domain of the document. Document owners have a freedom to change or not change the tags in their documents and can provide feedback to the XTR system.

Abstract Background: This work aims to analyze the landscape of scientific publications on subjects related to One Health and infectious diseases in Panama. We asked the following specific questions: How does the One Health research landscape look like in Panama? Are historical research efforts aligned with the One Health concept? What infectious diseases have received more attention from the local scientific community since 1990?Methods: Boolean searches on the Web of Science, SCOPUS and PubMed were undertaken to evaluate the main trends of publications related to One Health and infectious disease research in the country of Panama, between 1990 and 2019. Results: 4,547 publications were identified since 1990, including 3,564 peer-reviewed articles interconnected with One Health related descriptors, and 211 articles focused particularly on infectious diseases. There was a pattern of exponential growth in the number of publications with various contributions from Panamanian institutions. The rates of multidisciplinary, inter-institutional and inter-sectoral research ranged from moderate to low, to very low, respectively. Research efforts have centered largely on protozoan, neglected and arthropod-borne diseases with a strong emphasis on malaria, Chagas and leishmaniasis. Conclusion: Panama has scientific capabilities on One Health to tackle future infectious disease threats, but the official collaboration schemes and strategic investment to develop further competencies need to be considered. Through future collaborative efforts, Panama can reduce the risk of pandemics by developing surveillance strategies to improve the prediction of disease spillover, spread and persistence while helping to mitigate the impact on public health and the economy, regionally.
