Keynote: J Data Mining In Genomics & Proteomics

Abstract:

Geo-Engineering has observed many advances in different and important fields. However, these advances were not observed in such extent regarding the tools and techniques used to analyze geo-engineering data. To provide a most comprehensive and up-to-date information, we offer in the Workshop the possibility to discuss recent developments on the application of Data Mining techniques in Geo-Engineering. Among others, the following topics could be analyzed during this event: â�?¢ Standard Organization and Representation Methods of Geotechnical Data â�?¢ Multiple Model System Identification â�?¢ Clustering Multiple Models â�?¢ DM Algorithms on Geological and Seismic Data â�?¢ Soil Compaction â�?¢ Assessment of Liquefaction Potential â�?¢ Behavior of Granular Materials Based on Triaxial Tests â�?¢ Cone Penetration Tests â�?¢ Identification of Cause-effect Relationship between Drilling and Construction â�?¢ Estimation of Drilling Parameters â�?¢ Predicting Landslides Induced by Rainfall â�?¢ Slope Stability Evaluation â�?¢ Empirical Relations for Debris Flows â�?¢ Predicting Rockburst Based on In-situ Database â�?¢ Models for Prediction of Rockburst Indexes â�?¢ Petroleum Engineering Issues â�?¢ Prediction of Surface Settlements Due to Tunneling
