Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nowadays, data flows are continuously generated from heterogeneous hardware and software sources. There exist many examples of data stream providers, such as traffic sensors, health sensors, transaction logs, and activity logs. Typically, data providers send many data in extremely short time intervals, creating a continuous stream of data that must be rapidly processed. In this scenario, mining useful information and properties from data, such as statistics, semantic relationships, and distinct patterns, can support both data processing and analytics activities in different application domains, ranging from scientific to financial contexts. This Special Issue aims at providing methods and techniques for mining and profiling data streams, in order to extract metadata, to correctly process and manage data, and to perform unsupervised learning activities. Moreover, approaches and tools for supporting data preparation steps (e.g., data filtering, cleaning, and transformation), for avoiding the severe degradation in quality of mined results, are also welcomed. We invite researchers to contribute original and unique papers. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following areas:
- Data mining from data streams;
- Big data mining;
- Continuous queries;
- Data stream models;
- Deep learning with streaming data;
- Distributed and social stream mining;
- Explainable AI for predictive models;
- Foundations of learning from data streams;
- Graph stream mining;
- High-performance computing environments for big data streams;
- Incremental online learning algorithms;
- Internet of Things (IoT);
- Knowledge discovery and data profiling on data streams;
- Languages for stream query;
- Learning from heterogeneous, imbalanced, and multiple data streams;
- Medical data streams;
- Online model selection;
- Real-time analytics;
- Real-time and real-world applications using stream data;
- Scalable algorithms;
- Smart data mining with compact models;
- Temporal, spatial, and spatio-temporal data mining;
- Anomaly detection;
- Visualization techniques for data streams;
- Continuous and incremental data profiling;
- Data profiling over data stream management systems;
- Data preparation with streaming data.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Information is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
