Abstract
A method of mining data to discover activity patterns within the data is described. The method includes receiving data to be mined from at least one data source, determining which of a number of specified interests and constraints are associated with the mining process, selecting corresponding mining agents that combine search algorithms with propagators from the specified constraints, and finding any activity patterns that meet the specified interests and constraints.

11. A computer-based system for constraint-based mining of activity patterns within a framework, said system comprising:
-
a data input; a plurality of data mining tools within the framework and operable to run on said system, said data mining tools configured to search data received at said data input for one or both of temporal and spatial patterns for activities of interest within one or more scenarios; a plurality of constraints, said constraints based on knowledge and experiences, and operable to cause said system to determine whether one or more patterns satisfies the said constraints, said constraints organized based on a subsumption relationship among the constraints; and at least one database configured for operation as a pattern repository. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
