dc.description.abstractWe present CoLe, a cooperative, distributed model for mining knowledge from heterogeneous data. CoLe allows for the cooperation of different learning algorithms and the combination of the mined knowledge into knowledge structures that no individual learner can produce. CoLe organizes the work in rounds so that knowledge discovered by one learner can help others in the next round. We implemented a CoLe-based system for mining diabetes data, including a genetic algorithm for learning event sequences, improvements to the PART algorithm for our problem and combination methods to produce hybrid rules containing conjunctive and sequence conditions. In our experiments, the CoLe-based system outperformed the individual learners, with better rules and more rules of a certain quality. Our improvements to learners also showed the ability to find useful rules. From the medical perspective, our system confirmed hypertension has a tight relation to diabetes, and it also suggested connections new to medical doctors.eng
