Abstract

We introduce the construct of neighborhood dependency (ND) to express regularities like: "Families with similar size and income, tend to own cars of similar size." Arguably, the discovery of such regularities is useful for prediction purposes. We have implemented and tested an algorithm for mining NDs. The discovered NDs are then used in the P-neighborhood method to predict unknown values.
