Approach of this Presentation • Emphasize – Conceptual value of data mining – Relationship of data mining to the real world ld • Reserve – Specific procedures and mechanics – Specific mathematics – Production implementation © 2009 Mark Tabladillo Ph.D. 2

Data Mining Definitions • Data mining is the automatic or semi- automatic process of exploring data for t ti f l i d t f meaningful or useful patterns. • Data mining algorithms typically use estimation or optimization to achieve results (as opposed to only calculations). © 2009 Mark Tabladillo Ph.D. 5

Microsoft Data Mining • Microsoft Data Mining refers to Microsoft’s specific implementation of Mi ft’ ifi i l t ti f certain common data mining algorithms for the th DMX (D t Mi i E t (Data Mining Extensions) i ) language. • Also called SQL Server Data Mining, the technology is integrated into SQL Server rather than presented as an independent application. © 2009 Mark Tabladillo Ph.D. 6

Data Mining Tasks • Supervised – Answer known, what is correlated? • Unsupervised – Answer unknown (unspecified), what are the groups? • Forecasting – Given a trend, what is next? , Value Slide © 2009 Mark Tabladillo Ph.D. 7

The Data Mining Algorithms • Microsoft Naive Bayes • Microsoft Linear R Mi ft Li Regression i • Microsoft Decision Trees • Microsoft Time Series • Microsoft Clustering • Microsoft Sequence Clustering • Microsoft Association Rules • Microsoft Neural Networks • Microsoft Logistic Regression • Text Mining © 2009 Mark Tabladillo Ph.D. 9

Demo One: National League Baseball • The following rules apply: – You must make more than one group – Each group must have at least two players – Players of different position may be in the same group © 2009 Mark Tabladillo Ph.D. 12

Demo One: National League Baseball • Individual attributes can be used to make groups • Historical statistics can be used to group new players • Both supervised and unsupervised p p algorithms can be applied to the same data © 2009 Mark Tabladillo Ph.D. 13

Demo Two: Government Forecasting • Directions: The P id t is ki Th President i asking your opinion on i i how the following numbers will increase over th next f the t few months. B th Because thithis project is sensitive, you do not know what these numbers measure. H th b However, bbasedd on the available history, make your best projection f th next six periods. j ti for the t i i d © 2009 Mark Tabladillo Ph.D. 14
