We consider the problem of finding statistically unusual subgroups in a multi-relation database, and extend previous work on single-relation subgroup discovery. We give a precise definition of the multi-relation subgroup discovery task, propose a specific form of declarative bias based on foreign links as a means of specifying the hypothesis space, and show how propositional evaluation functions can be adapted to the multi-relation setting. We then describe an algorithm for this problem setting that uses optimistic estimate and minimal support pruning, an optimal refinement operator and sampling to ensure efficiency and can easily be parallelized.
