Abstract

 

Knowledge discovery in multiple databases is an important research area because (1) there is an urgent need for analyzing data in different sources, (2) there are essential differences between mono- and multi-database mining, and (3) there are limitations in existing multi-database mining efforts.  This talk will describe a multi-database mining process, and review some research issues related to multi-database mining, including database clustering and local pattern analysis.
