Integrating clustering techniques and OLAP methodologies: The ClustCube approach

In this paper, we introduce ClustCube, an innovative OLAP-based framework for clustering and mining complex database objects extracted from distributed database settings. To this end, ClustCube puts together conventional clustering techniques and well-consolidated OLAP methodologies in order to achieve higher expressive power and mining effectiveness over traditional methodologies for mining tuple-oriented information.
