Abstract

Nowadays, the expansion of computer networks and the diversity of data sources require new data mining approaches in multi-database systems. We propose a classification approach across multiple heterogeneous relational databases. More specifically, given a set of inter-related databases, we use a regression model for predicting the most useful links that will be connected to build a multi-relational decision tree. Experiments performed on different real and synthetic databases were very satisfactory compared with previous classification approaches in multiple databases.
