Abstract

We introduce relational redescription mining, that is, the task of
finding two structurally different patterns that describe nearly the
same set of object tuples in a relational dataset. By extending
redescription mining beyond propositional and real-valued attributes,
it provides a powerful tool to match different relational descriptions
of the same concept.
We propose an alternating scheme for solving this problem. Its core
consists of a relational query miner that efficiently identifies
discriminative connection patterns between pairs of nodes.
We compare our proposed query miner to a baseline ILP approach and
present examples of redescriptions found from the UMLS, UW-CSE and
Kinship relational datasets.
