Title
Mining Interventions from Parallel Event Sequences
Abstract
Discovering temporal patterns from sequence data has been an important task of data mining in recent years. In this paper a novel temporal pattern, Intervention , is proposed to capture the partial ordering relations in parallel event sequences. It is demonstrated that Intervention is essentially a deviation of generalized Markov property holding in parallel event sequences. A measure to evaluate the degree of such deviation, Intervention Intensity , is suggested, which has an important mathematical property, non-symmetry. As a result, an algorithm called MIPES for mining interventions is proposed. The time complexity of MIPES is of O (m 2) and is independent of data size, where m is the number of event types and is far smaller than the data size in practice. The experimental results show MIPES is applicable and scalable.
