The dependence of any organization on knowledge management is clearly understood. Actually, we should distinguish between knowledge management (KM) and knowledge engineering (KE): KM is to define and support organizational structure, allocate personnel to tasks, and monitor knowledge engineering activities; KE is concerned with technical matters, such as tools for knowledge acquisition, knowledge representation, and data mining. We shall use the designation KMKE for knowledge management and knowledge engineering collectively. KM is a very young area—the three articles termed “classic works” in Morey, Maybury, and Thuraisingham (2000) date from 1990, 1995, and 1996, respectively. We could regard 1991 as the start of institutionalized KM. This is when the Skandia AFS insurance company appointed a director of intellectual capital. KE has a longer history—expert systems have been in place for many years. Because of its recent origin, KMKE is characterized by rapid change. To deal with the change, we need to come to a good understanding of the nature of KMKE.

SummaryA software tool for data mining (DMiner-I) is introduced, which integrates pattern recognition (PCA, Fisher, clustering, HyperEnvelop, regression), artificial intelligence (knowledge representation, decision trees), statistical learning (rough set, support vector machine), and computational intelligence (neural network, genetic algorithm, fuzzy systems). It consists of nine function models: pattern recognition, decision trees, association rule, fuzzy rule, neural network, genetic algorithm, HyperEnvelop, support vector machine and visualization. The principle, algorithms and knowledge representation of some function models of data mining are described. Nonmonotony in data mining is dealt with by concept hierarchy and layered mining. The software tool of data mining is realized byVisual C++under Windows 2000. The software tool of data mining has been satisfactorily applied in the prediction of regularities of the formation of ternary intermetallic compounds in alloy systems, and diagnosis of brain glioma.

Since fuzzy knowledge representation can facilitate interaction between an expert system and its users, the effective construction of a fuzzy knowledge base is important. Fuzzy sequential patterns described by natural language are one type of fuzzy knowledge representation, and can thus be helpful in building a prototype fuzzy knowledge base. We define that a fuzzy sequence is an ordered list of frequent fuzzy grids, and the length of a fuzzy sequence is the number of frequent fuzzy grids in the frequent fuzzy sequence. Frequent fuzzy grids and frequent fuzzy sequences can be determined by comparing individual fuzzy supports with the user-specified minimum fuzzy support. A fuzzy sequential pattern is just a frequent fuzzy sequence, but it is not contained in any other frequent fuzzy sequence. In this paper, an effective algorithm called the Fuzzy Grids Based Sequential Patterns Mining Algorithm (FGBSPMA) is proposed to generate fuzzy sequential patterns. A numerical example is used to show an analysis of the user visit to websites, demonstrating the usefulness of the proposed algorithm.
