It is well-observed that the whole world is full of data that are highly related and of diverse data object types such as people, organizations, and events. In many applications, it is intended to discover the hidden structures through such relationships involving different types of data objects in the world, in addition to "clusters" of the same type of data objects. On the other hand, relational data learning typically involves a large collection of data objects and thus algorithms for relational data learning are computation-intensive as well as data intensive. This calls for massively parallel solutions in order to make the algorithms scalable to large collections of data. This project addresses a three year integrated research and education program focusing on engaging in-depth research in developing novel parallel frameworks for a wide spectrum of state-of-the-art solutions to a series of fundamental problems in relational data learning. This research promotes the revolutionized understanding of relational data learning in the context of distributed computation environment. The project addresses fundamental problems in the literature of relational data learning as well as the expected breakthrough in the interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research communities including parallel computation and scheduling, data mining and machine learning, and pattern analysis. The technologies generated from the research can be immediately deployed in important applications such as social network analysis, biological information discovery, financial and economic development analysis and prediction, natural disaster prediction, as well as military intelligence analysis.

可以很好地观察到，整个世界充满了高度相关的数据和不同的数据对象类型，如人员、组织和事件。在许多应用程序中，除了相同类型的数据对象的“集群”外，还打算通过涉及世界上不同类型的数据对象的这种关系来发现隐藏的结构。另一方面，关系数据学习通常涉及大量数据对象，因此关系数据学习的算法既是计算密集型的，也是数据密集型的。这需要大规模并行解决方案，以使算法可扩展到大型数据集。该项目涉及一个为期三年的综合研究和教育计划，重点是在开发新的并行框架方面进行深入研究，为关系数据学习中的一系列基本问题提供广泛的最先进的解决方案。本研究促进了对分布式计算环境下关系数据学习的革命性理解。该项目解决了关系数据学习文献中的基本问题，以及跨学科和多学科研究领域的预期突破，包括并行计算和调度、数据挖掘和机器学习以及模式分析。研究产生的技术可以立即部署在社会网络分析、生物信息发现、金融和经济发展分析和预测、自然灾害预测以及军事情报分析等重要应用中。项目网址：http://www.fortune.binghamton.edu/nsf-iis-1017828.htm
