TLDR
Thorough and innovative retrospection and thinking are timely in bridging the gaps and promoting data mining toward next‐generation research and development: namely, the paradigm shift from knowledge discovery from data to actionable knowledge discovery and delivery.Abstract:
Actionable knowledge has been qualitatively and intensively studied in the social sciences. Its marriage with data mining is only a recent story. On the one hand, data mining has been booming for a while and has attracted an increasing variety of increasing applications. On the other, it is a reality that the so-called knowledge discovered from data by following the classic frameworks often cannot support meaningful decision-making actions. This shows the poor relationship and significant gap between data mining research and practice, and between knowledge, power, and action, and forms an increasing imbalance between research outcomes and business needs. Thorough and innovative retrospection and thinking are timely in bridging the gaps and promoting data mining toward next-generation research and development: namely, the paradigm shift from knowledge discovery from data to actionable knowledge discovery and delivery. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.read more

Efficiently Mining Top-K High Utility Sequential Patterns
TL;DR: An efficient algorithm is designed to identify top-k high utility sequential patterns without minimum utility, and three effective features are introduced to handle the efficiency problem, including two strategies for raising the threshold and one pruning for filtering unpromising items.

One click mining: interactive local pattern discovery through implicit preference and performance learning
TL;DR: A fundamentally new approach towards user involvement that relies exclusively on the implicit feedback available from the natural analysis behavior of the user, and at the same time allows the user to work with a multitude of pattern classes and discovery algorithms simultaneously without even knowing the details of each algorithm is presented.
