FP-tree and COFI Based Approach for Mining of Multiple Level Association Rules in Large Databases
In recent years, discovery of association rules among itemsets in a large
database has been described as an important database-mining problem. The
problem of discovering association rules has received considerable research
attention and several algorithms for mining frequent itemsets have been
developed. Many algorithms have been proposed to discover rules at single
concept level. However, mining association rules at multiple concept levels may
lead to the discovery of more specific and concrete knowledge from data. The
discovery of multiple level association rules is very much useful in many
applications. In most of the studies for multiple level association rule
mining, the database is scanned repeatedly which affects the efficiency of
mining process. In this research paper, a new method for discovering multilevel
association rules is proposed. It is based on FP-tree structure and uses
cooccurrence frequent item tree to find frequent items in multilevel concept
hierarchy.Comment: Pages IEEE format, International Journal of Computer Science and

An initial state of design and development of intelligent knowledge discovery system for stock exchange database
Data mining is a challenging matter in research field for the last few years.Researchers are using different techniques in data mining.This paper discussed the initial state of Design and Development Intelligent Knowledge Discovery System for Stock Exchange (SE) Databases. We divide our problem in two modules.In first module we define Fuzzy Rule Base System to determined vague information in stock exchange databases.After normalizing massive amount of data we will apply our proposed approach, Mining Frequent Patterns with Neural Networks.Future prediction (e.g., political condition, corporation factors, macro economy factors, and psychological factors of investors) perform an important rule in Stock Exchange, so in our prediction model we will be able to predict results more precisely.In second module we will generate clustering algorithm. Generally our clustering algorithm consists of two steps including training and running steps.The training step is conducted for generating the neural network knowledge based on clustering.In running step, neural network knowledge based is used for supporting the Module in order to generate learned complete data, transformed data and interesting clusters that will help to generate interesting rules
Information Extraction, Data Integration, and Uncertain Data Management: The State of The Art
Information Extraction, data Integration, and uncertain data management are different areas of research that got vast focus in the last two decades. Many researches tackled those areas of research individually. However, information extraction systems should have integrated with data integration methods to make use of the extracted information. Handling uncertainty in extraction and integration process is an important issue to enhance the quality of the data in such integrated systems. This article presents the state of the art of the mentioned areas of research and shows the common grounds and how to integrate information extraction and data integration under uncertainty management cover

From Classification Rules to Action Recommendations
Rule induction has attracted a great deal of attention in Machine Learning and Data Mining. However, generating rules is not an end in itself because their applicability is not straightforward especially when the number of rules is large. Ideally, the user would ultimately like to use these rules to decide which actions to take. In the literature, this notion is usually referred to as actionability. The contribution of this paper1 is two-fold: first we propose a survey of the main approaches developed to address actionability. This topic has received growing attention in the past years. We present a classification of the main research in this area as well as a comparative study between the different approaches. Second, we propose a new framework to address actionability. Our goal is to lighten the burden of analyzing a large set of classification rules when the user is confronted with an "unsatisfactory situation" and needs help to decide what appropriate actions to take in order to remedy the situation. The method consists in comparing the situation to a set of classification rules. This is achieved by using a suitable distance that allows one to suggest action recommendations requiring minimal changes to improve the situation. We propose the algorithm DAKAR for learning action recommendations and we present an application to environment protection. Our experiment shows the usefulness of our contribution for action recommendation but also raises some concerns about the impact of the redundancy of a set of rules in learning action recommendations of good quality
Machine Learning in Automated Text Categorization
The automated categorization (or classification) of texts into predefined
categories has witnessed a booming interest in the last ten years, due to the
increased availability of documents in digital form and the ensuing need to
organize them. In the research community the dominant approach to this problem
is based on machine learning techniques: a general inductive process
automatically builds a classifier by learning, from a set of preclassified
documents, the characteristics of the categories. The advantages of this
approach over the knowledge engineering approach (consisting in the manual
definition of a classifier by domain experts) are a very good effectiveness,
considerable savings in terms of expert manpower, and straightforward
portability to different domains. This survey discusses the main approaches to
text categorization that fall within the machine learning paradigm. We will
discuss in detail issues pertaining to three different problems, namely
document representation, classifier construction, and classifier evaluation.Comment: Accepted for publication on ACM Computing Survey
CAS-MINE: Providing personalized services in context-aware applications by means of generalized rules
Context-aware systems acquire and exploit information on the user context to tailor services to a particular user, place, time, and/or event. Hence, they allowservice providers to adapt their services to actual user needs, by offering personalized services depending on the current user context. Service providers are usually interested in profiling users both
to increase client satisfaction and to broaden the set of offered services. Novel and efficient techniques are needed to tailor service supply to the user (or the user category) and to the situation inwhich he/she is involved. This paper presents the CAS-Mine framework to efficiently
discover relevant relationships between user context data and currently asked services for both user and service profiling. CAS-Mine efficiently extracts generalized association rules, which provide a high-level abstraction of both user habits and service characteristics depending
on the context. A lazy (analyst-provided) taxonomy evaluation performed on different attributes (e.g., a geographic hierarchy on spatial coordinates, a classification of provided services) drives the rule generalization process. Extracted rules are classified into groups according to their semantic meaning and ranked by means of quality indices, thus allowing a domain expert to focus on the most relevant patterns. Experiments performed on three context-aware datasets, obtained by logging user requests and context information for three
real applications, show the effectiveness and the efficiency of the CAS-Mine framework in mining different valuable types of correlations between user habits, context information, and provided services
