Abstract

Since data are rarely specially collected/stored in a database for the purpose of mining knowledge in most organizations, a database always contains a lot of data that are redundant and not necessary for mining interesting patterns, as well as some interesting patterns may hide in multiple data sources rather than a single database. Hence peculiarity oriented multi-database mining are required. In the paper, peculiarity rules are introduced as a new class of patterns, which can be discovered from a relatively low number of peculiar data by searching the relevance among the peculiar data, as well as how to mine more interesting peculiarity rules in multiple data sources is investigated.
