ADT 1.0

ADT 1.0 is a "Association-based Decision Tree" classifier. It constructs a classifier by building a decision tree like structure using association rules. The tree structure provides a way to prune overfitting rules by examining specific rules before examining general rules --- an issue not addressed by association rules for serving the prediction purpose.

TextMiner 1.0

TextMiner 1.0 is a software for clustering text documents based on the notion of frequent items. An item is frequent if it occurs in some minimum fraction of documents. TextMiner 1.0 uses a novel clustering criterion: there are many frequent items within each cluster and little overlapping of such items across different clusters.
