Abstract

This paper proposes an algorithm for discovering temporal patterns, represented in the Simple Temporal Problem (STP) formalism, that frequently occur in a set of temporal sequences. To focus the search, some initial knowledge can be provided as a seed pattern by a domain expert: the mining process will find those frequent temporal patterns consistent with the seed. The algorithm has been tested on a database of temporal events obtained from polysomnography tests in patients with Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome (SAHS).
