Call for Papers

Special Issue on Mathematics, Data and Knowledge (

Mathematics in Computer Science (http://link.springer.com/journal/11786)



There is a growing interest in applying mathematical theories and methods
(from topology, computational geometry, differential equations, fluid
dynamics, quantum statistics, etc.) to describe and to analyze scientific
regularities of diverse, massive, complex, nonlinear, and fast changing
data accumulated continuously around the world and in discovering and
revealing the valid, insightful, and valuable knowledge that data imply.
With increasingly solid mathematical foundations, various methods and
techniques have been studied and developed for data mining, modeling, and
processing, and knowledge representation, organization, and verification;
different systems and mechanisms have been designed to perform
data-intensive tasks in many application fields for classification,
predication, recommendation, ranking, filtering, etc. This MCS special
issue invites submissions of original research articles on the exploration
of new mathematical theories and methodologies for data modeling and
analysis, and knowledge discovery and management, on the study of existing
mathematical models of big data and complex knowledge, and on the
development of novel solutions and strategies to enhance the performance of
existing systems and mechanisms for data and knowledge processing. Specific
topics include, but are not limited to:

·      Mathematical foundations and theories for data-intensive and
knowledge-based systems

·      Mathematical, statistical, and dynamic analysis of data and
knowledge models

·      Mathematical methods for big data storage, transferring, and
processing

·      Mathematical methods for complex knowledge representation,
organization, visualization, and management

·      Mathematical methods for data mining, pattern recognition,
artificial intelligence, and knowledge discovery

·      Algebraic, geometric, analytic, discrete, probabilistic, fuzzy,
rough set, and cognitive modeling of recommendation systems, ranking
systems, rating systems, expert systems, etc.

·      Mathematical theories for the development of evolutionary computing,
neural networks, and genetic algorithms
