A Data Mining Technique

The data mining step in KDD specifies the task to be performed, such as summarization or anomaly-detection. In this chapter, we introduce the data structures and algorithms utilized by our data mining technique. These data structures and algorithms have been incorporated into DGG-Discover and DGG-Interest, extensions to DB-Discover, a research software tool for KDD developed at the University of Regina [22, 23, 24, 25, 50, 65, 66, 70, 72].
