Abstract

In response to an explosive growth of collected, stored, and transferred data, Data Mining has emerged as a new research area. However, the approaches studied in this area are mostly specialized to analyze precise and highly structured data. Other sources of information— for instance images—have often been neglected. The term Information Mining wants to emphasize the need for methods suited for more heterogeneous and imprecise information sources. We also claim the importance of fuzzy set methods to meet the prominent aim of to producing comprehensible results. Two case studies of applying information mining techniques to remotely sensed image data are presented.
