What is Data Mining?
• Extraction of interesting
information or patterns from data
in large databases
• Data mining is also known as

• EG: Gold mining can be indicated
as a similiar process to knowledge
discovery

of data items.
• Clustering
• identifying a set of similarity groups in the data.
Why is Data Mining Important?

Data Mining Styles
• Descriptive
• characterize the general properties of the data in the database
• Predictive
• perform inference on the current data to make predictions
• Not Mutually Exclusive
• Descriptive  predictive
 Customer segmentation – descriptive by clustering
 Followed by a risk assignment model – predictive
Why is data mining necessary?
• There is a big gap from stored data to knowledge; and the transition won’t
occur automatically.
• Many interesting things you want to find cannot be found using database
queries
“find me people likely to buy my products”
“Who are likely to respond to my promotion”
