Methods for Investigation of Dependencies between Attributes in Databases

This paper surveys research in the field of data mining, which is related to discovering the dependencies between attributes in databases. We consider a number of approaches to finding the distribution intervals of association rules, to discovering branching dependencies between a given set of attributes and a given attribute in a database relation, to finding fractional dependencies between a given set of attributes and a given attribute in a database relation, and to collaborative filtering.
