W<strong>het</strong>her it concerns claim details of a large health insurance<br />
company, or sensor readings from a highway bridge, data miner<br />
Arno Knobbe from the <strong>Leiden</strong> Institute of Ad<strong>van</strong>ced Computer<br />
Science (LIACS) is not fazed. Just as long as the database is large<br />
and challenging, and he and his team can devel<strong>op</strong> smart methods<br />
to extract useful knowledge from the big pile of data. This could<br />
be care givers that claim ‘inefficiently’, or simply how the bridge<br />
responds to sunshine. “I like to work with datasets from practice.<br />
This is often so much more complex than you could imagine.<br />
Recognizing the fundamental problems in such practical applications<br />
can lead to nice theoretical ad<strong>van</strong>ces that are appreciated<br />
by the entire research field, not just by the insurance pe<strong>op</strong>le or<br />
civil engineers.”<br />
