Abstract

I will present a broad overview of the Dr Know project (Data Reduction and KNOwledge extraction for data Warehouses) at AT&T Labs. The focus of this project is to enable data analysis on massive collections of data. The central concept is reducing the large volume of data, through techniques such as aggregation, sampling, and lossy compression.

I will try to suggest a unifying structure across many different data representations, and present a couple of specific algorithms in somewhat greater detail.
