Goal driven approach to model interaction between viewpoints of a multi-view KDD process

A data mining project is usually held by several actors (domain experts, data analysts, KDD experts ...), each with a different viewpoint. In this paper we propose to enhance coordination and knowledge sharing between actors of a multi-view KDD analysis through a goal driven modeling of interactions between viewpoints. After a brief review of our approach of viewpoint in KDD, we will first develop a Goal Model that allows identification and representation of business objectives during the business understanding step of KDD process. Then, based on this goal model, we define a set of relations between viewpoints of a multi-view analysis; namely equivalence, inclusion, conflict and requirement.
