  • System and method for integrating data mining into a relational database management system
    Patent number: 6629095
    Abstract: An integrated data mining and relational database management system is provided on a server. The data mining engine determines characteristics of relationships between input data values and an output data value that are obtained from a relational database (managed by the relational database management system). The integration allows direct conversion of data values from the relational database to data mining identifiers used for data mining operations by the data mining engine, and vice-versa. The integrated server also makes patterns uncovered during data mining (e.g., “understand” and “predict” information) available in virtual relational database tables that can be queried.
