Abstract

With the growing interest on Network Analysis, Relational Data Mining is becoming an emphasized domain of Data Mining. This paper addresses the problem of extracting representative elements from a relational dataset. After defining the notion of degree of representativeness, computed using the Borda aggregation procedure, we present the extraction of exemplars which are the representative elements of the dataset. We use these concepts to build a network on the dataset. We expose the main properties of these notions and we propose two typical applications of our framework. The first application consists in resuming and structuring a set of binary images and the second in mining co-authoring relation in a research team.
