    Abstract

    Knowledge discovery in database (KDD) is the process of discovering previously unknown and potentially interesting patterns in large databases. This process consists of many interacting steps performing specific data manipulation and transformation operations. Although several process models are already available, they cannot fully satisfy the need of real applications such as information security. In this paper, experiences of the knowledge discovery process are characterized and a new model by means of an extension of the model by Fayyad et al. (1996) is formalized. Two case studies are illustrated why the process model is proposed and in what situation it can be used in practice.
