Abstract
The amount of electronic data available is growing very fast and this explosive growth in databases has generated a need for new techniques and tools that can intelligently and automatically extract implicit, previously unknown, hidden and potentially useful information and knowledge from these data. These tools and techniques are the subject of the fields of knowledge discovery in databases and data mining.
