The point-based complex event processing handled an instantaneous event by using one time stamp in each event. However, the activity period of the event plays the important role in the field which is the same as the finance, multimedia, medicine, and meteorology. The point-based event is insufficient for expressing the complex temporal relationship in this field. In the application field of the real-time world, the event has the period. The events more than two kinds can be temporally overlapped. In addition, one event can include the other event. The relation about the events of kind of these can not be successive like the point-based event. This thesis designs and implements the method detecting the patterns of the complex event by using the interval-based events. The interval-based events can express the overlapping relation between events. Furthermore, it can include the others. By using the end point of beginning and end point of the termination, the operator of interval-based events shows the interval-based events. It expresses the sequence of the interval-based events and can detect the complex event patterns. This thesis proposes the algorithm using the active instance stack in order to raise efficiency of detection of the complex event patterns. When comprising the event sequence, this thesis applies the window push down technique in order to reduce the number of intermediate results. It raises the utility factor of the running time and memory.

When we construct an interval estimate of two independent proportions with rare events, the standard approach based on the normal approximation behaves badly in many cases. The problem becomes more severe when no success observations are observed on both groups. In this paper, we compare two alternative methods of constructing a confidence interval of the difference of two independent proportions by use of simulation. One is based on the profile likelihood and the other is the Bayesian probability interval. It is shown in this paper that the Bayesian interval estimator is easy to be implemented and performs almost identical to the best frequentist's method -the profile likelihood approach.

Epidemiologic studies frequently try to estimate the impact of a specific risk factor. The risk difference and the risk ratio are generally useful measurements for this purpose. When using such measurements for rare events, the standard approaches based on the normal approximation may fail, in particular when no events are observed. In this paper, we discuss and evaluate several existing methods to construct confidence intervals around risk differences and risk ratios using Monte-Carlo simulations when the disease of interest is rare. The results in this paper provide guidance how to construct interval estimates of the risk differences and the risk ratios when no events are detected.

Previous researches on mining sequential patterns mainly focused on discovering patterns from the point-based event. Interval events with a time interval occur in the real world that have the start and end point. Existing interval pattern mining methods that discover relationships among interval events based on the Allen operators have some problems. These are that interval patterns having three or more interval events can be interpreted as several meanings. In this paper, we propose the I_TPrefixSpan algorithm, which is an efficient sequence pattern mining technique for removing ambiguity in the Interval Patterns Mining. The proposed algorithm generates event sequences that have no ambiguity. Therefore, the size of generated candidate set can be minimized by searching sequential pattern mining entries that exist only in the event sequence. The performance evaluation shows that the proposed method is more efficient than existing methods.

The event sequence of the same type from a set of events having time property can be summarized in one event. But if the event sequence having an interval, It is reasonable to be summarized more than one in independent sub event sequence of each other. In this paper, we suggest a method of temporal data mining that summarizes the interval events based on Allen's interval algebra and finds out interval event association rule from interval events. It provides better knowledge than others by using concept of an independent sub sequence and finding interval event association rules.

A temporal database systems provides timing information and maintains history of data compared to the conventional database system. In this paper, we present a temporal relational database which use an interval-stamping method for instant-based events and for interval-based states. A set of temporal algebraic operators are developed on an instance of time and interval of time so that we can manipulate events and states at a same time. The set of operation is the basis for creating a relational algebra that is closed for temporal relations. And temporal SQL is also suggested as a temporal query relational language for our algebraic operations on temporal relations.

One of objectives in epidemiologic studies is to detect the amount of change caused by a specific risk factor. Risk ratio is one of the most useful measurements in epidemiology. When we perform the inference for this measurement with rare events, the standard approach based on the normal approximation may fail, in particular when there are no disease cases observed. In this paper, we discuss and evaluate several existing methods for constructing a confidence interval of risk ratio through simulation when the disease of interest is a rare event. The results in this paper provide guidance with how to construct interval estimates for risk difference and risk ratio when there are no disease cases observed.

An event means a flow which has a time attribute such as a symptom of patient. Stream data collected by sensors can be summarized as an interval event which has a time interval between the start-time point and the end-time point in multiple stream data environment. Most of temporal mining techniques have considered only the frequent events. However, these approaches may ignore the infrequent event even if it is important. In this paper, we propose a new temporal data mining that can find association rules for the significant temporal relation based on interval events in multidimensional stream data environment. Our method considers the weight of events and stream data on the sensing time point of abnormal events. And we can discover association rules on the significant temporal relation regardless of the occurrence frequency of events. The experimental analysis has shown that our method provide more useful knowledge than other conventional methods.

An ATMS(Assumption-based Truth Maintenance System) has been widely used for maintaining the truth of information by detecting and solving contradictions in nile-based systems. But the ATMS can not correctly maintain the truth of the information in case that the generated information is satisfied within a time interval or includes data about temporal relations of events in time varying situations, because it has no mechanism manipulating temporal data. In this paper, The extended ATMS method is proposed, which can maintain the truth of the information in the inference system using information changing over time or temporal relations of events. In order to maintain contexts generated by relations of events, the label representation method is modified, the disjunction, conjunction simplification method in the label-propagation procedure and nogood handling method of the conventional ATMS are modified, too.

An event means a flow which has a time attribute such as the a symptom of patients, an interval event has the time period between the start-time-point and the end-time-point. Although there are many studies for temporal data mining, they do not deal with discovering knowledge from interval event such as patient histories and purchase histories. In this paper, we suggest a method of temporal data mining that finds association rules of event causal relationships and predicts an occurrence of effect event based on discovered rules. Our method can predict the occurrence of an event by summarizing an interval event using the time attribute of an event and finding the causal relationship of event. As a result of simulation, this method can discover better knowledge than others by considering a lot of supports of an event and finding the significant rare relation on interval events which means an essential cause of an event, regardless of an occurrence support of an event in comparison with conventional data mining techniques.
