Zusammenfassung:Presented is a concept for discovering a pattern in a dataset, where the dataset comprises a plurality of records, each record associated with a plurality of attribute values. The concept comprises defining a target attribute value and ascertaining a set of candidate attribute values based on the target attribute value. The set of candidate attribute values may be considered as a potential pattern in the dataset. For each record, the target attribute values and candidate attribute values are compared to the attribute values of that record so as to identify matching attribute values. A matching indicator is generated for each record based on a comparison between the number of matching attributes values and a matching threshold value, such that the matching indicator indicates a degree of similarity between the attribute values of the record and the set of candidate attribute values and the target attribute value.
