Discovering Trends in Text Databases
We describe a system we developed for identifying trends in text documents collected over a period of time. Trends can be used, for example, to discover that a company is shifting interests from one domain to another. Our system uses several data mining techniques in novel ways and demonstrates a method in which to visualize the trends. We also give experiences from applying this system to the IBM Patent Server, a database of U.S. patents.
