An Efficient Architecture for Information Retrieval in P2P Context Using Hypergraph
Peer-to-peer (P2P) Data-sharing systems now generate a significant portion of
Internet traffic. P2P systems have emerged as an accepted way to share enormous
volumes of data. Needs for widely distributed information systems supporting
virtual organizations have given rise to a new category of P2P systems called
schema-based. In such systems each peer is a database management system in
itself, ex-posing its own schema. In such a setting, the main objective is the
efficient search across peer databases by processing each incoming query
without overly consuming bandwidth. The usability of these systems depends on
successful techniques to find and retrieve data; however, efficient and
effective routing of content-based queries is an emerging problem in P2P
networks. This work was attended as an attempt to motivate the use of mining
algorithms in the P2P context may improve the significantly the efficiency of
such methods. Our proposed method based respectively on combination of
clustering with hypergraphs. We use ECCLAT to build approximate clustering and
discovering meaningful clusters with slight overlapping. We use an algorithm
MTMINER to extract all minimal transversals of a hypergraph (clusters) for
query routing. The set of clusters improves the robustness in queries routing
mechanism and scalability in P2P Network. We compare the performance of our
method with the baseline one considering the queries routing problem. Our
experimental results prove that our proposed methods generate impressive levels
of performance and scalability with with respect to important criteria such as
response time, precision and recall.Comment: 2o pages, 8 figure
Visualizing Transactional Data with Multiple Clusterings for Knowledge Discovery
Information visualization is gaining importance in data mining and transactional data has long been an important target for data miners. We propose a novel approach for visualizing transactional data using multiple clustering results for knowledge discovery. This scheme necessitates us to relate different clustering results in a comprehensive manner. Thus we have invented a method for attributing colors to clusters of different clustering results based on minimal transversals. The effectiveness of our method VisuMClust has been confirmed with experiments using artificial and real-world data sets
