We present DL8, an exact algorithm for finding a decision tree that optimizes a ranking function under size, depth, accuracy and leaf constraints. Because the discovery of optimal...
Mining of frequent itemsets is a fundamental data mining task. Past research has proposed many efficient algorithms for the purpose. Recent work also highlighted the importance of...
This paper investigates the discovery of conditional functional dependencies (CFDs). CFDs are a recent extension of functional dependencies (FDs) by supporting patterns of semantic...
