An XML-enabled data mining query language: XML-DMQL

Description
Summary:Inspired by the good work of Han et al. (1996) and Elfeky et al. (2001) on the design of data mining query languages for relational and object-oriented databases, in this paper, we develop an expressive XML-enabled data mining query language by extension of XQuery. We first describe some preliminaries on the extension of traditional rule mining to XML mining. The philosophy that guides the language design is then elaborated. We detail the syntax of the mining language and its usage with a number of examples.
