Resource and Knowledge Discovery in Global Information Systems: A Preliminary Design and Experiment

Full Text: kdd95.pdf PDF

With huge amounts of information connected to the global information network (Internet), efficient and effective discovery of resource and knowledge from the "global information base" has become an imminent research issue, especially with the advent of the Information SuperHighway. In this article, a multiple layered database (MLDB) approach is proposed to handle the resource and know ledge discovery in global information base. A multiple layered database is a database formed by generalization and transformation of the information, layer-by-layer, starting from the original information base (treated as layer-0, the primitive layer). Information retrieval, data mining, and data analysis techniques can be used to extract and transform information from a lower layer database to a higher one. Layer-1 and higher layers of an MLDB can be modeled by an extended-relational or object oriented model, constructed automatically, and updated incrementally. Information at all the layers except the primitive one can be stored, managed and retrieved by the available database technology; resources can be found by control led search through different layers of the database; and know ledge discovery can be performed efficiently in such a multiple layered database.
