Pisa KDD Laboratory

http://www-kdd.di.unipi.it/

A research group involving CNUCE-CNR (an institute of National Council of
Research) and the Computer Science Department of University of Pisa.

The research agenda of the group include the development of
knowledge-intensive applications of data analysis and knowledge
extraction/discovery in databases; methods for the evaluation of the
extracted knowledge w.r.t. application-dependent metrics, and for the
abstraction of the extracted knowledge into higher-level rules
(business rules) that are readily usable by the end-user; design and
control of the overall knowledge discovery process, consisting of all
above mentioned aspects.

The research objectives of the group include the design of a KDSE -
Knowledge Discovery Support Environment aimed at the development of
intelligent data analysis systems with data mining techniques,
oriented at the uniform treatment of extracted knowledge with
domain-specific knowledge, based on a logic database language
(rule-based, SQL-compatible) that facilitates the integration of
mining and querying.
