What Is Redescription Mining
2017
In scientific investigations, data oftentimes differ in nature; for instance, they might originate from distinct sources or be cast over separate terminologies. In order to gain insight into the phenomenon of interest, an intuitive first task is to identify the correspondences that exist between these different aspects. This is the motivating principle behind redescription mining, a data analysis task that aims at finding distinct common characterizations of the same objects. In this chapter, we provide the basic definitions of redescription mining, including the data model, query languages, similarity measures, p-value calculations, and methods for pruning redundant redescriptions. We will also briefly cover related data analysis methods and provide a short history of redescription mining research.
