Why Data Mining? The Explosive Growth of Data: from terabytes to petabytes Data collection and data availability Automated data collection tools, database systems, Web computerized society Major sources of abundant data Business: Web, e-commerce transactions, stocks, Science: Remote sensing bioinformatics, scientific simulation Society and everyone: news, digital cameras, YouTube We are drowning in data, but starving for knowledge Necessity is the mother of invention"-Data mining-Automated analysis of massive data sets

Why Data Mining Credit ratings/targeted marketing Given a database of 100,000 names which persons are the least likely to default on their credit cards? Identify likely responders to sales promotions Fraud detection Which types of transactions are likely to be fraudulent, given the demographics and transactional history of a particular customer? Customer relationship management Which of my customers are likely to be the most loyal, and which are most likely to leave for a competitor?: Data Mining helps extract such information
Why Data Mining ◼ Credit ratings/targeted marketing: ◼ Given a database of 100,000 names, which persons are the least likely to default on their credit cards? ◼ Identify likely responders to sales promotions ◼ Fraud detection ◼ Which types of transactions are likely to be fraudulent, given the demographics and transactional history of a particular customer? ◼ Customer relationship management: ◼ Which of my customers are likely to be the most loyal, and which are most likely to leave for a competitor? : Data Mining helps extract such information
Data mining Process of semi-automatically analyzing large databases to find patterns that are valid: hold on new data with some certainty a novel non-obvious to the system useful: should be possible to act on the item understandable: humans should be able to interpret the pattern a also known as Knowledge discovery in Databases(KDD)
