Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Data intelligence refers to the methods and technologies used by individuals or organizations to understand their data, turning raw data into useful information and actionable insights. It goes beyond simply collecting and storing data by focusing on its context, quality, and how data can be used to drive better decisions and outcomes. Computational analytics refers to usages of computational techniques to analyze and interpret datasets (including big data), enabling data-driven decision making and discovery. It involves applying business intelligence, computational, mathematical, and statistical methods to extract information, discover knowledge, and gain insights from data. It often uses tools and techniques from computer science, data science, mathematics, statistics, and related disciplines. This Topic invites submissions on theoretical and practical issues on data intelligence and computational analytics, including but not limited to the following:

  • Data science;
  • Data management, including metadata management;
  • Data quality;
  • Data governance;
  • Data integration, data fabric, data lake, data mart, data mesh, data vault, data warehouse;
  • Data-driven decision making, problem solving;
  • Data-driven computational techniques;
  • Data analysis and data analytics;
  • Graph analytics and text and linguistic analytics;
  • Cloud and high-performance computing for data intelligence and computational analytics;
  • AI and machine learning, including deep learning;
  • Data intelligence and computational analytics applications in business, healthcare, science, engineering, social sciences, or other areas.

This Topic focuses on one theme—namely, data intelligence and computational analytics. However, it provides authors with multiple choices of venues—namely, five different journals. Topic Editors

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

  1. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
  2. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
  3. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
  4. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
  5. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
