DM: RE: Data Mining Patents

[Abraham Meidan]

I'm in the process of collecting a list of patents related to data
mining technology and was looking for any help that you might be able 
to
provide.   I've found a couple from IBM and one from NCR but if you 
know
of any others, I'd love to hear about them.   The results will be
collected an put on my data mining web page.

Can a pure mathematical algorithm be patented?
Abraham


Thanks!
