Discovery Science ; Vol. 4265 ; 9th International Conference, DS 2006, Barcelona, Spain, October 7-10, 2006, Proceedings
This LNAI volume, containing the proceedings of the 9th International C- ference onDiscoveryScience, is structured in three parts. The ?rstpart contains the papers/abstracts of the invited talks, the second part contains the accepted long papers, and the third part the accepted regular (short) papers. Out of 87 submitted papers, 23 were accepted for publication as long papers, and 18 as regular papers. All the submitted papers were reviewed by two or three ref- ees. In addition to the presentations of accepted papers, the DS 2006 conference program consisted of three invited talks, two tutorials, the collocated ALT 2006 conference and the Pascal Dialogues workshop.
Discovery science ; Vol. 3735 ; 8th International Conference, DS 2005, Singapore, October 8-11, 2005, Proceedings
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Discovery Science, DS 2005, held in Singapore in October 2005, co-located with the International Conference on Algorithmic Learning Theory (ALT 2005). The 21 revised long papers and the 6 revised regular papers presented together with 9 project reports and 5 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 112 submissions. The papers cover all issues in the area of automating scientific discovery or working on tools for supporting the human process of discovery in science.

Ambient intelligence for scientific discovery : Foundations, theories, and systems
Many difficult scientific discovery tasks can only be solved in interactive ways, by combining intelligent computing techniques with intuitive and adaptive user interfaces. It is inevitable to use human intelligence in scientific discovery systems: human eyes can capture complex patterns and relationships, along with detecting the exceptional cases in a data set; the human brain can easily manipulate perceptions to make decisions. Ambient intelligence is about this kind of ubiquitous and autonomous human interaction with information. Scientific discovery is a process of creative perception and communication, dealing with questions like: how do we significantly reduce information while maintaining meaning, or how do we extract patterns from massive data and growing data resources. Originating from the SIGCHI Workshop on Ambient Intelligence for Scientific Discovery, this state-of-the-art survey is organized in three parts: new paradigms in scientific discovery, ambient cognition, and ambient intelligence systems. Many chapters share common features such as interaction, vision, language, and biomedicine.
