The growing complexity and volume of modern databases make it increasingly important for researchers and practitioners involved with association rule mining to make sense of the information they contain. ""Rare Association Rule Mining and Knowledge Discovery: Technologies for Infrequent and Critical Event Detection"" provides readers with an in-depth compendium of current issues, trends, and technologies in association rule mining. Covering a comprehensive range of topics, this book discusses underlying frameworks, mining techniques, interest metrics, and real-world application domains within the field.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of five international workshops held in conjunction with PAKDD 2011 in Shenzhen, China, in May 2011: the International Workshop on Behavior Informatics (BI 2011), the Workshop on Quality Issues, Measures of Interestingness and Evaluation of Data Mining Models (QIMIE 2011), the Workshop on Biologically Inspired Techniques for Data Mining (BDM 2011), the Workshop on Advances and Issues in Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinical Data Mining (AI-TCM 2011), and the Second Workshop on Data Mining for Healthcare Management (DMGHM 2011). The book also includes papers from the First PAKDD Doctoral Symposium on Data Mining (DSDM 2011). The 42 papers were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics discussing emerging techniques in the field of knowledge discovery in databases and their application domains extending to previously unexplored areas such as data mining based on optimization techniques from biological behavior of animals and applications in Traditional Chinese Medicine clinical research and health care management.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th Australasian Conference on Data Mining, AusDM 2022, held in Western Sydney, Australia, during December 12-15, 2022. The 17 full papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 44 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as research track and application track.
