Data-Driven Modelling: Concepts, Approaches and Experiences

Data-driven modelling is the area of hydroinformatics undergoing fast development. This chapter reviews the main concepts and approaches of data-driven modelling, which is based on computational intelligence and machine-learning methods. A brief overview of the main methods – neural networks, fuzzy rule-based systems and genetic algorithms, and their combination via committee approaches – is pr...

Analysis of Recommender Systems’ Algorithms

In this work, we will provide a brief review of different recommender systems’ algorithms, which have been proposed in the recent literature. First, we will present the basic recommender systems’ challenges and problems. Then, we will give an overview of association rules, memorybased, model-based and hybrid recommendation algorithms. Finally, evaluation metrics to measure the performance of th...
