This paper introduces support envelopes--a new tool for analyzing association patterns--and illustrates some of their properties, applications, and possible extensions. Specifical...
We consider the problem of characterisation of sequences of heterogeneous symbolic data that arise from a common underlying temporal pattern. The data, which are subject to impreci...
In this paper, we study the problem of discovering interesting patterns through user's interactive feedback. We assume a set of candidate patterns (i.e., frequent patterns) h...
Sequence mining is an important data mining task. In order to retrieve interesting sequences from a large database, a minimum support threshold is needed to be specified. Unfortun...
Research in the areas of privacy preserving techniques in databases and subsequently in privacy enhancement technologies have witnessed an explosive growth-spurt in recent years. ...
