This paper investigates a brute-force technique for mining classification rules from large data sets. We employ an association rule miner enhanced with new pruning strategies to c...
It is generally believed that data mining results do not violate the anonymity of the individuals recorded in the source database. In fact, data mining models and patterns, in orde...

Clustering is a data mining problem which finds dense regions in a sparse multi-dimensional data set. The attribute values and ranges of these regions characterize the clusters. ...
Data mining, with its promise to extract valuable, previously unknown and potentially useful patterns or knowledge from large data sets that contain private information is vulnerab...
For a wide variety of classification algorithms, scalability to large databases can be achieved by observing that most algorithms are driven by a set of sufficient statistics that...
