Abstract
This paper describes an approach for deriving classification knowledge from databases, taking into account user preferences. These preferenc es especially concern the trade-off between different kinds of costs a nd performance indicators of the classification scheme to be developed . We analyze what knowledge, provided by the user, can be used at vari ous stages of the machine learning process to influence the developmen t of the classifier. We restrict ourselves in this paper mainly to the generation of classification trees.
