Data Mining
 Why data mining

 What is data mining
 Scope of data mining
 Typical applications
 Issues with data mining
What it is?
Data Mining Contd…..
 A data mining research carried out at supermarkets showed that,
 Men who had children and who do shopping on Saturday to buy nappies for

their little ones tend to buy Beer also….
 Interesting right?.....
 Lets see some more examples……
Data Mining Contd..
 helps in churn prevention.
Data mining Contd..
o Data mining in CRM
o Based on the behavior and personal

data about the customer, CRM
admisnitrter will divide the customer in
two classes.
o A Prediction model can be created using

this data to find the probability of losing
a customer in next two years.
Data Mining Contd..
 IN CRM , it is a well known fact that acquiring a new customer cost 7 times

more than keeping the existing customer (churn prevention)

 Thus CRM can help to reduce the churn rate
Why Data Mining is important ?

Data
Why Data Mining is important?
Why Data Mining
 Terabytes of data generated every day
 Abundance of data available from sources like business, society and science
 Easy techniques of data collection ex: automated data collection tools,

database systems, computerized society etc
 Need for analysis of massive data
What is Data Mining
It is a process of discovering
 suitable
 New
 Potentially useful insights
 Under stable patterns and trends in the large data sets
 Using sophisticated mathematical algorithms
 To segment the data
 Evaluate the probability for future events
Stages of Data mining
Selection
•Segmenting the data according to criteria
•Example who have a car, people who are in govt jobs
Preprocessing
•Data cleansing stage, unnecessary information is removed

Transformation
. Data is transformed. Data is made usable and navigable

Data mining
. Stage of extracting of patterns from data
Interpretation and evaluation
•Patterns interpreted into knowledge that can be used to support human decision making,
Reasons for Data Mining popularity
 Growing Data Volume
 Limitations of Human Analysis
 Low Cost of Machine Learning
Data Mining Models
 Verification Model
 Discovery Model
Data Mining Process Model
Understanding
business
requirements

Deployment

Data collection

Data
Data prep and
analysis

Evaluation

Data modeling
Scope of Data Mining
 Data Mining technology can generate new business opportunities
 Automated prediction of trends and behaviors
 Automated discovery of previously unknown patterns
 Yield the benefits of automation on existing software and hardware platforms
 Implemented on new systems as existing platforms are upgraded and new

products developed
Data Mining Limitations
 Data mining systems relies on databases to supply the raw data for output.
 Problem occurs as data bases tend to be dynamic, incomplete, noisy and large
 Uncertainty
 Size and updating problem
 Limited information
Techniques used in Data Mining
 Artificial Neural Networks
 Decisions Trees
 Genetic Algorithm
 Nearest Neighbor Method
 Rule Induction
Artificial Neural Networks

o System of interconnected neurons

that can compute values from
inputs by feeding information
through the network.
Decision Tree
 Uses tree like model of decisions

and their possible consequences
Genetic Algorithm
o Generate useful solutions to

optimization and search
problems.
Nearest Neighbor Method

 Classifying cases based on

their similarity to other
cases
Rule induction
 The extraction of useful if-then rules from data based on

statistical significance.
Data Mining Application
Data mining techniques can be applied in various fields such as


Telecommunication



CRM



Banking



Medicine and Pharmaceuticals



Insurance



Management (Quality Assurance, Marketing)

 Travel and Tourism..
Contd..
 Media logistic


Academic Research



IT & ITES



Online Portals and Social Media Channels



Media and Advertising



Airline Companies



Sports



Finance

 Film Industry and many more etc.
