Abstract. We address, in this chapter, the identification of typical patterns that best characterize a set of sequences. More specifically, we focus on data-driven methods that search for the typical patterns among the observed sequences. In life course studies, such typical sequences serve, for instance, to describe ideal-type life trajectories; i.e., the common way(s) of organizing our life. ...

This paper is concerned with the summarization of a set of categorical sequence data. More specifically, the problem studied is the determination of the smallest possible number of representative sequences that ensure a given coverage of the whole set, i.e. that have together a given percentage of sequences in their neighborhood. The goal is to yield a representative set that exhibits the key f...

While the judge as the arbiter of law determines the legal permissibility of the presented arguments the jurors as triers of facts determine their probable weights. Such a framework is based on two key components: classical argumentation ...
