It is well known that local patterns are at the core of a lot of knowledge which may be discovered from data. Nevertheless, use of local patterns is limited by their huge number an...
Pattern discovery in sequences is an important problem in many applications, especially in computational biology and text mining. However, due to the noisy nature of data, the tra...
Sequential pattern mining has been studied extensively in data mining community. Most previous studies require the specification of a minimum support threshold to perform the min...
One of the unresolved problems faced in the construction of intelligent tutoring systems is the acquisition of background knowledge, either for the specification of the teaching st...
Abstract. A lot of recent applications dealing with complex data require sophisticated data structures (trees or graphs) for their specification. Recently, several techniques for ...
