Data Mining

Data mining (the analysis step of the "Knowledge Discovery in Databases" process, or KDD),an interdisciplinary subfield of computer science, is the computational process of discovering patterns in large data sets involving methods at the intersection of artificial intelligence, machine learning, statistics, and database systems.The overall goal of the data mining process is to extract information from a data set and transform it into an understandable structure for further use.Aside from the raw analysis step, it involves database and data management aspects, data pre-processing, model and inference considerations, interestingness metrics, complexity considerations, post-processing of discovered structures, visualization, and online updating.Continue Reading..
