Overview
• Brief Introduction to Data Mining
• Data Mining Algorithms
• Specific Examples
– Algorithms: Disease Clusters
– Algorithms: Model-Based Clustering
– Algorithms: Frequent Items and Association Rules
• Future Directions, etc.
Of “laws”, Monsters, and Giants…
• Moore’s law: processing “capacity” doubles every 18
months : CPU, cache, memory
• It’s more aggressive cousin:
– Disk storage “capacity” doubles every 9 months

What do the two
“laws” combined
produce?
A rapidly growing gap
between our ability to
generate data, and our
ability to make use of it.

What is Data Mining?
Finding interesting structure in data
• Structure: refers to statistical patterns, predictive
models, hidden relationships
• Examples of tasks addressed by Data Mining
– Predictive Modeling (classification, regression)
– Segmentation (Data Clustering )
– Summarization
– Visualization

Data Mining Algorithms
“A data mining algorithm is a well-defined
procedure that takes data as input and produces
output in the form of models or patterns”
Hand, Mannila, and Smyth
“well-defined”: can be encoded in software
“algorithm”: must terminate after some finite number
of steps
Algorithm Components
1. The task the algorithm is used to address (e.g.
classification, clustering, etc.)
2. The structure of the model or pattern we are fitting to the
data (e.g. a linear regression model)
3. The score function used to judge the quality of the fitted
models or patterns (e.g. accuracy, BIC, etc.)
4. The search or optimization method used to search over
parameters and/or structures (e.g. steepest descent,
MCMC, etc.)
5. The data management technique used for storing, indexing,
and retrieving data (critical when data too large to reside in
memory)

The curve represents a road
Each “x” marks an accident
Red “x” denotes an injury accident
Black “x” means no injury
Is there a stretch of road where there is an unually large
fraction of injury accidents?
xxx x x
Scan with Fixed Window
• If we know the length of the “stretch of
road” that we seek, e.g.,
we
could slide this window long the road and
find the most “unusual” window location

How Unusual is a Window?
• Let pW and p¬W denote the true probability of being
red inside and outside the window respectively. Let
(xW ,nW) and (x¬W ,n¬W) denote the corresponding
counts
• Use the GLRT for comparing H0: pW = p¬W versus
H1: pW ≠ p¬W
[( xW  xW ) /( nW  nW )] xW  xW [1  (( xW  xW ) /( nW  nW ))]nW  nW  xW  xW

( xW / nW ) xW [1  ( xW / nW )]nW  xW ( xW / nW ) xW [1  ( xW / nW )]nW  xW
• lambda measures how unusual a window is
2 log  here has an asymptotic chi-square distribution with 1df
Permutation Test
• Since we look at the smallest  over all window
locations, need to find the distribution of smallest-
under the null hypothesis that there are no clusters
• Look at the distribution of smallest- over say 999
random relabellings of the colors of the x’s

• Look at the position of observed smallest- in this distribution
to get the scan statistic p-value (e.g., if observed smallest- is 5th
smallest, p-value is 0.005)
Variable Length Window
• No need to use fixed-length window. Examine all
possible windows up to say half the length of the
entire road

= fatal accident
= non-fatal accident
Spatial Scan Statistics
• Spatial scan statistic uses, e.g., circles instead of line
segments
Spatial-Temporal Scan Statistics
• Spatial-temporal scan statistic use cylinders where the
height of the cylinder represents a time window
Other Issues
• Poisson model also common (instead of the
bernoulli model)
• Covariate adjustment
• Andrew Moore’s group at CMU: efficient
algorithms for scan statistics

Association Rules: Support and Confidence
Customer

Customer

Customer

• Find all the rules Y  Z with
minimum confidence and support
– support, s, probability that a
transaction contains {Y & Z}
– confidence, c, conditional probability
that a transaction having {Y & Z}
also contains Z
Transaction ID Items Bought Let minimum support 50%, and

– C  A (50%, 100%)

support = support({A &C}) = 50%
confidence = support({A &C})/support({A}) = 66.6%
The Apriori principle:
Any subset of a frequent itemset must be frequent
Mining Frequent Itemsets: the
Key Step
• Find the frequent itemsets: the sets of items that have
minimum support
– A subset of a frequent itemset must also be a frequent
itemset
• i.e., if {AB} is a frequent itemset, both {A} and {B} should be a
frequent itemset
– Iteratively find frequent itemsets with cardinality from 1 to
k (k-itemset)
• Use the frequent itemsets to generate association
rules.
The Apriori Algorithm
• Join Step: Ck is generated by joining Lk-1with itself
• Prune Step: Any (k-1)-itemset that is not frequent cannot
be a subset of a frequent k-itemset
• Pseudo-code:
Ck: Candidate itemset of size k
Lk : frequent itemset of size k
L1 = {frequent items};
for (k = 1; Lk !=; k++) do begin
Ck+1 = candidates generated from Lk;
for each transaction t in database do
increment the count of all candidates in Ck+1
that are contained in t
Lk+1 = candidates in Ck+1 with min_support
end
return k Lk;

Mixtures of {Sequences, Curves, …}
K
p ( Di )   p ( Di | ck )  k
k 1
Generative Model
- select a component ck for individual i
- generate data according to p(Di | ck)
- p(Di | ck) can be very general
- e.g., sets of sequences, spatial patterns, etc
[Note: given p(Di | ck), we can define an EM algorithm]
Example: Mixtures of SFSMs
Simple model for traversal on a Web site
(equivalent to first-order Markov with end-state)
Generative model for large sets of Web users
- different behaviors <=> mixture of SFSMs
EM algorithm is quite simple: weighted counts

• Textbook statistical ideas with a new focus on

• Lots of new ideas too
