13. Dataology Research Center, Fudan University What is Dataology

14. Dataology Research Center, Fudan University Dataology Dataology is the theories, methods and technologies for studying data nature. To study the structures of a dataset in data nature To acquire usage data from data nature To prove the rules of data nature by theoretical methods To discover the rules of data nature by experimental modes To develop and utilize the data resource in data nature

17. Dataology Research Center, Fudan University Dataology Data Experiment: Discover the features and rules from a dataset. Focus on the random of methods and the unpredictability of results. Different from data mining

18. Dataology Research Center, Fudan University Dataology Data Camouflage / Data perception : To camouflage the private data which are exposed in the public To percept the camouflaged data. Different from data security (privacy protection, privacy mining)

19. Dataology Research Center, Fudan University Dataology Data Taxonomy: Classify data to form the pedigree of data and the history of development. Similar to the classification for the species, history and culture Data types, utilities and relationships

20. Dataology Research Center, Fudan University Dataology Data Aware: To make data visualable, sniffable, audible, tangible. People want to feel data nature as feeling nature. To develop various technologies of data aware.
