Huge masses of digital data about products, customers and competitors have become available for companies in the services sector. In order to exploit its inherent (and often hidde...
The value of extracting knowledge from semi-structured data is readily apparent with the explosion of the WWW and the advent of digital libraries. This paper proposes a versatile ...

This paper describes our work in learning online models that forecast real-valued variables in a high-dimensional space. A 3GB database was collected by sampling 421 real-valued s...
We present the notion of Ranking for evaluation of two-class classifiers. Ranking is based on using the ordering information contained in the output of a scoring model, rather tha...
Manyreal-world KDDexpeditions involve investigation of relationships betweenvariables in different, heterogeneousdatabases. Wepresent a dynamic programmingtechnique for linking re...
Many data mining tasks (e.g., Association Rules, Sequential Patterns) use complex pointer-based data structures (e.g., hash trees) that typically suffer from sub-optimal data loca...

This paper explores unexpected results that lie at the intersection of two common themes in the KDD community: large datasets and the goal of building compact models. Experiments ...
This paper develops the concept of usefulness in the context of supervised learning. We argue that usefulness can be used to improve the performance of classification rules (as me...
