A Knowledge Discovery Case Study for the Intelligent Workplace
Large databases are becoming increasingly common in civil infrastructure applications. Although it is relatively simple to specifically query these databases at a low level, higher level questions like "How does the environment affect pavement cracking?" are nearly impossible to answer with traditional methods. Data mining techniques provide an excellent solution for learning abstract knowledge from civil infrastructure databases. However, data mining needs to be performed within a systematic process to ensure correct and reproducible results. Many decisions must be made during this process, making it difficult for novice analysts to apply data mining techniques thoroughly. This paper presents an application of a knowledge discovery process to data collected for an "intelligent" building. The knowledge discovery process is illustrated and explained through this case study. Additionally, we discuss the importance of this case study in the context of a research effort to develop an interactive guide for the knowledge discovery process.
