Rapid Detection of Emerging Pattern
Data mining algorithms at the Auton Lab have successfully detected new emerging patterns in various domains: Health services, Agriculture, and Manufacturing and Oil companies. Our algorithms are 10-1000 times faster than other traditional techniques. The results demonstrate significantly higher detection power with much smaller false positive rates. We have applied these algorithms in semi/fully-automated modes under supervied/unsupervised environments and for retrospective/prospective surveillance. A few algorithms for Rapid detection of emerging patterns are: WSARE, Ultra Fast SSS, and TipMon.
