Knowledge Discovery in Big Data from Astronomy and Earth Observation bridges the gap between astronomy and geoscience in the context of applications, techniques, and key principles of big data. Machine learning and parallel computing are increasingly becoming cross-disciplinary, as the phenomena of Big Data is becoming common place. This book provides insight into the common workflows and data science tools used for big data in Astronomy and Geoscience. After establishing the similarity in the data gathering, pre-processing and handling, the data science aspects are illustrated in the context of both fields. Both the software and algorithms aspect of big data as well as the hardware view are addressed as well. Finally, the book offers insight into the emerging science which combines data and expertise from both fields in studying the effect of cosmos on the earth and its inhabitants. Addresses both Astronomy and Geosciences in parallel, from a big data perspectiveIncludes introductory information, key principles, applications, and the latest techniquesWell-supported by computing and information science-oriented chapters to introduce the necessary knowledge in these field INDICE: 1.
