Rare cases are often the most interesting cases. For example, in medical diagnosis one is typically interested in identifying relatively rare diseases, such as cancer, rather than more frequently occurring ones, such as the common cold. In this chapter we discuss the role of rare cases in data mining. Specific problems associated with mining rare cases are discussed, followed by a description of methods for addressing these problems.
