KDD: Knowledge Discovery in Databases
“Who finds what it seeks, in general, does a good schoolboy work;
thinking about what he wishes, he often neglects the signs, sometimes tiny, which shows another thing that the object of his forecasts.
The true researcher must know how to pay attention to the signs which will reveal the existence of a non expected phenomenon.”
(Louis Leprince‐Ringuet, 1901‐2000)
A computer system just answer « what was asked to it », impossible to “discover”
“non Boolean logic” search, query
• Wine, bread and cheese
• Creation of new treatment
“Structural KDD”
Innovative Conception
Starting point for brainstorming, creativity

«When the unexpected is not awaited, it is not discovered because one cannot find it and that there remains inaccessible» (Héraclite d'Ephèze, 550‐475 av. J.C.) Frugal innovation : power of the market
