Information Harvesting -LRB- IH -RRB- was an early data mining product from the 1990s .. data mining. data mining. It was invented by Ralphe Wiggins and produced by the Ryan Corp , later Information Harvesting Inc. , of Cambridge , Massachusetts .. IH sought to infer rules from sets of data .. It did this first by classifying various input variables into one of a number of bins , thereby putting some structure on the continuous variables in the input .. IH then proceeds to generate rules , trading off generalization against memorization , that will infer the value of the prediction variable , possibly creating many levels of rules in the process .. It included strategies for checking if overfitting took place and , if so , correcting for it .. overfitting. overfitting. Because of its strategies for correcting for overfitting by considering more data , and refining the rules based on that data , IH might also be considered to be a form of machine learning .. overfitting. overfitting. machine learning. machine learning. The advantage of IH , as compared with other data mining products of its time and even later , was that it provided a mechanism for finding multiple rules that would classify the data and determining , according to set criteria , the best rules to use .. data mining. data mining
