We present a prototype of an inductive database. Our system enables the user to query not only the data stored in the database but also generalizations (e.g. rules or trees) over ...
Data mining has emerged to address the problem of transforming data into useful knowledge. Although most data mining techniques, such as Association Rules, substantially reduce th...
This paper introduces support envelopes--a new tool for analyzing association patterns--and illustrates some of their properties, applications, and possible extensions. Specifical...
We present DL8, an exact algorithm for finding a decision tree that optimizes a ranking function under size, depth, accuracy and leaf constraints. Because the discovery of optimal...
In this paper, we describe a new approach for mining concept associations from large text collections. The concepts are short sequences of words that occur frequently together acr...
