  3. Contrast data mining - What & Why ? • Contrast - ``To compare or appraise in respect to differences’’ (Merriam Webster Dictionary) • Contrast data mining - The mining of patterns and models contrasting two or more classes, conditions, or datasets. Why: • ``Sometimes it’s good to contrast what you like with something else. It makes you appreciate it even more’’ Darby Conley, Get Fuzzy, 2001 • Useful for understanding, prediction/classification, outlier detection, … Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  4. What can be contrasted ? • Objects at different time periods • ``Compare ICDM papers published in 2006-2007 versus those in 2004-2005 to find emerging research directions’’ • Objects for different spatiallocations • ``Find the distinguishing patterns of cars sold in the south, versus those sold in the north’’ • Objects across different classes • ``Find the key differences between normal colon tissues and cancerous colon tissues’’ Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  5. How do we contrast two datasets, without advanced mining tools? • Let D1 and D2 be the two datasets. • We usually find a prototypical case p1 for D1, and a prototypical case p2 for D2. Then we compare p1 against p2. • We may also compare the distribution of D1 against that of D2. • Such simplifications often miss the interesting contrast patterns. Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  6. Alternative names for contrast data mining/patterns • Contrast data mining is related to change mining, difference mining, discriminator mining, classification rule mining, … • Contrast patterns are related to these patterns: Change patterns, class based association rules, contrast sets, concept drift, difference patterns, discriminative patterns, (dis)similarity patterns, emerging patterns, gradient patterns, high confidence patterns, (in)frequent patterns, …… Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  7. How is contrast data mining used ? • Domain understanding • ``Young children with diabetes have a greater risk of hospital admission, compared to the rest of the population • Used for building classifiers • Many different techniques - to be covered later • Also used for weighting and ranking instances • Used for monitoring • ``Tell me when something unusual (unlike others in this class) arrives” • Understanding can help us do prevention, prediction can help us do treatment. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure! Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  8. Support = frequency Emerging Patterns • Emerging Patterns (EPs) are contrast patterns between two classes of data whose support changes significantly between the two classes. “Significant change” can be defined by: • If supp2(X)/supp1(X) = infinity, then X is a jumping EP. • jumping EP occurs in some members of one class but never occurs in the other class. • Here, X is the AND of a set of simple conditions. Extension to OR was also studied similar to RiskRatio; +: allowing patterns with small overall support big support ratio: supp2(X)/supp1(X) >= minRatio big support difference: |supp2(X) – supp1(X)| >= minDiff (as defined by Bay+Pazzani 99) Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  9. Example EP in microarray data for cancer Normal Tissues Cancer Tissues EP example: X={g1=L,g2=H,g3=L}; suppN(X)=50%, suppC(X)=0 Use minimality to reduce number of mined EPs binned data genes tissues Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  10. Top support minimal jumping EPs for colon cancer These EPs have 95%--100% support in one class but 0% support in the other class. Minimal: Each proper subset occurs in both classes. Colon Normal EPs {12- 21- 35+ 40+ 137+ 254+} 100% {12- 35+ 40+ 71- 137+ 254+} 100% {20- 21- 35+ 137+ 254+} 100% {20- 35+ 71- 137+ 254+} 100% {5- 35+ 137+ 177+} 95.5% {5- 35+ 137+ 254+} 95.5% {5- 35+ 137+ 419-} 95.5% {5- 137+ 177+ 309+} 95.5% {5- 137+ 254+ 309+} 95.5% {7- 21- 33+ 35+ 69+} 95.5% {7- 21- 33+ 69+ 309+} 95.5% {7- 21- 33+ 69+ 1261+} 95.5% Colon Cancer EPs {1+ 4- 112+ 113+} 100% {1+ 4- 113+ 116+} 100% {1+ 4- 113+ 221+} 100% {1+ 4- 113+ 696+} 100% {1+ 108- 112+ 113+} 100% {1+ 108- 113+ 116+} 100% {4- 108- 112+ 113+} 100% {4- 109+ 113+ 700+} 100% {4- 110+ 112+ 113+} 100% {4- 112+ 113+ 700+} 100% {4- 113+ 117+ 700+} 100% {1+ 6+ 8- 700+} 97.5% EPs from Mao+Dong 05 (gene club + border-diff). There are ~1000 items with supp >= 80%. Colon cancer dataset (Alon et al, 1999 (PNAS)): 40 cancer tissues, 22 normal tissues. 2000 genes Very few 100% support EPs. Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  11. Besides uses discussed earlier, another potential use of minimal jumping EPs: • Minimal jumping EPs for normal tissues  Properly expressed gene groups important for normal cell functioning, but destroyed in all colon cancer tissues  Restore these  ?cure colon cancer? • Minimal jumping EPs for cancer tissues Bad gene expression groups that occur in some cancer tissues but never occur in normal tissues  Disrupt these  ?cure colon cancer? • ? Possible targets for drug design ? Li+Wong 02 proposed “gene therapy using EP” idea Paper using EP published in Cancer Cell (cover, 3/02). EPs have been applied in medical applications for diagnosing acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia etc. Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  12. EP Mining Algorithms and Studies • Complexity result (Wang et al 05) • Border-differential algorithm (Dong+Li 99) • Gene club + border differential (Mao+Dong 05) • Constraint-based approach (Zhang et al 00) • Tree-based approach (Bailey et al 02, Fan+Kotagiri 02) • Projection based algorithm (Bailey el al 03) • ZBDD based method (Loekito+Bailey 06) • Equivalence class based (Li et al 07). Can handle 200+ dimensions Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  13. Contrast pattern based classification -- history • Contrast pattern based classification: Methods to build or improve classifiers, using contrast patterns • CBA (Liu et al 98) • CAEP (Dong et al 99) • Instance based method: DeEPs (Li et al 00, 04) • Jumping EP based (Li et al 00), Information based (Zhang et al 00), Bayesian based (Fan+Kotagiri 03), improving scoring for >=3 classes (Bailey et al 03) • CMAR (Li et al 01) • Top-ranked EP based PCL (Li+Wong 02) • CPAR (Yin+Han 03) • Weighted decision tree (Alhammady+Kotagiri 06) • Rare class classification (Alhammady+Kotagiri 04) • Constructing supplementary training instances (Alhammady+Kotagiri 05) • Noise tolerant classification (Fan+Kotagiri 04) • One-class classification/detection of outlier cases (Chen+Dong 06) • … • Most follow the aggregating approach of CAEP. Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  14. EP-based classifiers: rationale • Consider a typical EP in the Mushroom dataset, {odor = none, stalk-surface-below-ring = smooth, ring-number = one};its support increases from 0.2% from “poisonous” to 57.6% in “edible” (support ratio = 288). • Strong differentiating power: if a test case T contains this EP, we can predict T as edible with high confidence 99.6% = 57.6/(57.6+0.2) • A single EP is usually sharp in telling the class of a small fraction (e.g. 3%) of all instances. Need to aggregate the power of many EPs to make the classification. • EP based classification methods often out perform state of the art classifiers, including C4.5 and SVM. They are also noise tolerant. Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  15. CAEP (Classification by Aggregating Emerging Patterns) • Given a test case T, obtain T’s scores for each class, by aggregating the discriminating power of EPs contained in T; assign the class with the maximal score as T’s class. • The discriminating power of EPs are expressed in terms of supports and growth rates. Preferlarge supRatio, large support • The contribution of one EP X (support weighted confidence): strength(X) = sup(X) * supRatio(X) / (supRatio(X)+1) CMAR aggregates “Chi2 weighted Chi2” • Given a test T and a set E(Ci) of EPs for class Ci, the aggregate score of T for Ci is score(T, Ci) =S strength(X) (over X of Ci matching T) • For each class, may use median (or 85%) aggregated value to normalize to avoid bias towards class with more EPs Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  16. How CAEP works? An example Class 1 (D1) • Given a test case T={a,d,e}, how to classify T? • T contains EPs of class 1 : {a,e} (50%:25%) and {d,e} (50%:25%), so Score(T, class1) = 0.5*[0.5/(0.5+0.25)] + 0.5*[0.5/(0.5+0.25)] = 0.67 Class 2 (D2) • T contains EPs of class 2: {a,d} (25%:50%), so Score(T, class 2) = 0.33; • T will be classified as class 1 since Score1>Score2 Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  17. DeEPs (Decision-making by Emerging Patterns) • An instance based (lazy) learning method, like k-NN; but does not use the normal distance measure. • For a test instance T, DeEPs • First project all training instances to contain only items in T • Discover EPs from the projected data • Use these EPs to get the training data that match some discovered EPs • Finally, use the proportional size of matching data in a class C as T’s score for C • Advantage: disallow similar EPs to give duplicate votes! Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  18. Why EP-based classifiers are good • Use the discriminating power of low support EPs (with high supRatio), in addition to the high support ones • Use multi-feature conditions, not just single-feature conditions • Select from larger pools of discriminative conditions • Compare: Search space of patterns for decision trees is limited by early greedy choices. • Aggregate/combine the discriminating power of a diversified committee of “experts” (EPs) • Decision of such classifiers is highly explainable Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  19. Also Studied Contrast Pattern Mining for • Sequence family A vs sequence family B • Graph collection A vs graph collection B • Build contrast pattern based clustering quality index • Constructing synthetic training data for classes with few training instances • … • More than 6 PhD dissertations • About 50 research papers • A tutorial given at IEEE ICDM 2007 Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  20. Multi-dimensional multi-level data mining in data cubes • Data cube is used for discovering patterns captured in consolidated historical data for a company/organization: • rules, anomalies, unusual factor combinations • Data cube is focused on modeling & analysis of data for decision makers, not daily operations. • Data organized around major subjects or factors, such as customer, product, time, sales. • Cube “contains” huge number of MDML sumaries for “segments” or “sectors” at different levels of details • Basic OLAP operations: Drill down, roll up, slice and dice, pivot Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  21. Data Cubes: Base Table & Hierarchies • Base table stores sales volume (measure), a function of product, time, & location (dimensions) Hierarchical summarization paths Time Location Industry Region Year Category Country Quarter Product City Month Week Office Day Product *: all (as top of each dimension) a base cell Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  22. Time 2Qtr 1Qtr sum 3Qtr 4Qtr TV Product U.S.A PC VCR sum Canada Location Mexico sum All, All, All Data Cubes: Derived Cells Measures: sum, count, avg, max, min, std, … (TV,*,Mexico) Derived cells, different levels of details Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  23. Gradient mining in data cubes • Find syntactically similar cells with significantly different measure values • EG: • (house,California,May,2008), total-sale=100M • vs (house,Iowa,May,2008), total-sale = 200M • *** This is made up to show the point *** Other people studied: iceberg cubes, cells significantly different from neighbors, … Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  24. Multi-Dimensional Trends Analysis of Sets of Time-Series in Data Cubes • Consider applications having many time series • ECG curves, stocks, power grids, sensor networks, internet, gene expressions for toxicology study, … • Need MDML trends analysis • Mining/monitoring unusual patterns/events, in MDML manner • E.G. Find good sets of stocks with desired total risk/reward ratios • Regression cube for time series • Store regression base cube • Support MDML OLAP of regressions • Results also useful for MDML data stream monitoring Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  25. Example: Aggregating Set of Time Series • Two component cells • Aggregated cell Deriving regression of aggregated cell from regression of component cells Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  26. In-Network Detection of Shapes of Region-Based Events in Sensor Networks Event Sensing Event Sensing Event Sensing Event Sensing Event Sensing Event Sensing Sensor Node Each sensor can sense events, and talk with neighbors Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  27. Research Problems Studied Detection of Region-Based Events: given a sensor network, when a region-based event occurs, report the spatial geometric information, which may include • the boundaries and the shape of the region; • positions of important points; • important metrics: length, area, density… Tracking of Region-Based Events: after initial detection of a region-based event, determine its spatial dynamic parameters (moving direction, speed, expansion rate of area, etc). Computation is done in the sensor network, which is organized into an R-tree. Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  28. Multiple platforms/labs dataset concordance/consistency evaluation • Microarrays (supplied by different manufactures) are used to measure gene expressions in tissues, by different labs. • Without knowing the concordance between platform/lab conditions, it is hard to transfer knowledge (patterns/classifiers) from one lab to another • We provide measures and techniques to address this problem, based on “discriminating gene/classifier transferability” Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  29. Summarizing clusterings of documents • We often need to process large collections of documents (abstracts, articles, google search, …) • We need methods to help us quickly get a sense of the main themes of the documents • We gave methods to find “summary word sets” (cluster description sets) to describe clusterings of documents • Words in a summary set for a cluster should be typical in the cluster, and be rare in other clusters Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  30. Alternative Clustering • Clustering is usually performed on poorly understood datasets • Multiple clusterings (ways to group the data) may exist • Need methods to discover alternative clusterings • We gave algorithms to solve this problem, and introduced a new similarity measure between clusterings Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  31. Undesirable object converter mining • We have a class of desirable objects and a class of undesirable objects. • The goal is to mine “small sets of attribute changes, which when applied to undesirable objects, may change those objects’ class from undesirable to desirable.” • We considered two types of converter sets – personalized, and universal • We gave algorithms to mine them Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  32. Data mining for knowledge transfer • We have two application domains: a well understood one and a less understood one. • The goal is to mine knowledge that can be transferred from the well understood domain to the less understood domain, to solve problems in the less understood domain Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong

  33. Comparative summary of search results • We often perform multiple searches on the web or on a document collection. • There is an information overload, when we process the search results. • We developed tools to compare and summarize the search results to reduce the information overload. • Compare two searches -- examples: • Same key words searched at two time points • Same key words searched over two locations etc Data Mining Results and Applications Guozhu Dong
