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...
Tasks of data mining and information retrieval depend on a good distance function for measuring similarity between data instances. The most effective distance function must be for...
Automatically segmenting unstructured text strings into structured records is necessary for importing the information contained in legacy sources and text collections into a data ...
Procedures for collective inference make simultaneous statistical judgments about the same variables for a set of related data instances. For example, collective inference could b...
Pattern ordering is an important task in data mining because the number of patterns extracted by standard data mining algorithms often exceeds our capacity to manually analyze the...
