“Machine Learning and the Grid”

Machine learning is concerned with developing methods for software to learn from experience or extract knowledge from examples in a database. One important machine learning task is classification. This talk addresses both classification methods developed for traditional data mining in relational databases and text mining.

Classification deals with discovery of a predictive learning function that classifies a data object into one of several predefined classes. We present novel decision-tree-based classification services which can be used either autonomously or as a building block to construct distributed and scalable classifiers that operate on data repositories integrated into the Grid that typically involve large, complex, heterogeneous, and geographically distributed datasets. Scalability and performance of the prototype implementations within our GridMiner project (www.gridminer.org) have been examined and the results will presented in the talk. I will also provide an on-line demonstration of the classifiers functionality
as it is embedded into the GridMiner infrastructure.
