A Survey of Parallel Data Mining
With the fast, continuous increase in the number and size of databases, parallel data mining is a natural and cost-effective approach to tackle the problem of scalability in data mining. Recently there has been a considerable research on parallel data mining. However, most projects focus on the parallelization of a single kind of data mining algorithm/paradigm. This paper surveys parallel data mining with a broader perspective. More precisely, we discuss the parallelization of data mining algorithms of four knowledge discovery paradigms, namely rule induction, instance-based learning, genetic algorithms and neural networks. Using the lessons
learned from this discussion, we also derive a set of heuristic principles for designing efficient parallel data mining algorithms
A Hybrid Web Recommendation System based on the Improved Association Rule Mining Algorithm
As the growing interest of web recommendation systems those are applied to
deliver customized data for their users, we started working on this system.
Generally the recommendation systems are divided into two major categories such
as collaborative recommendation system and content based recommendation system.
In case of collaborative recommen-dation systems, these try to seek out users
who share same tastes that of given user as well as recommends the websites
according to the liking given user. Whereas the content based recommendation
systems tries to recommend web sites similar to those web sites the user has
liked. In the recent research we found that the efficient technique based on
asso-ciation rule mining algorithm is proposed in order to solve the problem of
web page recommendation. Major problem of the same is that the web pages are
given equal importance. Here the importance of pages changes according to the
fre-quency of visiting the web page as well as amount of time user spends on
that page. Also recommendation of newly added web pages or the pages those are
not yet visited by users are not included in the recommendation set. To
over-come this problem, we have used the web usage log in the adaptive
association rule based web mining where the asso-ciation rules were applied to
personalization. This algorithm was purely based on the Apriori data mining
algorithm in order to generate the association rules. However this method also
suffers from some unavoidable drawbacks. In this paper we are presenting and
investigating the new approach based on weighted Association Rule Mining
Algorithm and text mining. This is improved algorithm which adds semantic
knowledge to the results, has more efficiency and hence gives better quality
and performances as compared to existing approaches.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures, 2 table
