Knowledge Discovery Using Neural Networks

  • Conference paper
Innovations in Applied Artificial Intelligence (IEA/AIE 2004)

Abstract

A novel knowledge discovery technique using neural networks is presented. A neural network is trained to learn the correlations and relationships that exist in a dataset. The neural network is then pruned and modified to generalize the correlations and relationships. Finally, the neural network is used as a tool to discover all existing hidden trends in four different types of crimes in US cities as well as to predict trends based on existing knowledge inherent in the network.
