Introduction
• Nowadays, large data sets have become available
due to advances in technology.
• As a result, there is an increasing interest in
various scientific communities to explore the use
of emerging data mining techniques for the
analysis of these large data sets *.
• Data mining is the semi-automatic discovery of
patterns, associations, changes, anomalies, and
statistically significant structures and events in
data **.
* Grossman et al., 2001
** Shmueli G, 2012

What is Datamining?
• Process of semi-automatically analyzing large
databases to find patterns that are *:
– valid: hold on new data with some certainty
– novel: non-obvious to the system
– useful: should be possible to act on the item
– understandable: humans should be able to
interpret the pattern
• Also known as Knowledge Discovery in
Databases

Big data: Cash Register
• Past: It was a
calculator.
• Now: It saves every
detail of every
action.
– The movements of
each product.
– The movements of
each user.
08.10.2013 Seval Ünver | CENG 553 5
Data vs. Information
• Data is useless by itself.
• Data is not just numbers
or letters. It consists of
numbers, letters and
their meaning. The
meaning is called
metadata.
• Information is
interpreted data.
• Converting the data to
information is called data
processing.
08.10.2013 Seval Ünver | CENG 553 6

08.10.2013 Seval Ünver | CENG 553 11
Supervised vs. Unsupervised Learning
• Supervised:
– Problem solving
– Driven by a real business problems and historical data
– Quality of results dependent on quality of data
• Unsupervised:
– Exploration (aka clustering)
– Relevance often an issue
• Beer and baby diapers
– Useful when trying to get an initial understanding of the data
– Non-obvious patterns can sometimes pop out of a completed
data analysis project

Pros and Cons of Neural Networks
Supervised Algorithm Summary
• Decision Trees
– Understandable
– Relatively fast
– Easy to translate into SQL queries
• kNN
– Quick and easy
– Models tend to be very large
• Neural Networks
– Difficult to interpret
– Can require significant amounts of time to train
08.10.2013 Seval Ünver | CENG 553 27
K-Means Clustering
• User starts by specifying the number of clusters (K)
• K datapoints are randomly selected
• Repeat until no change:
– Hyperplanes separating K points are generated
– K Centroids of each cluster are computed
08.10.2013 Seval Ünver | CENG 553 28
Data Warehouse
Data warehouse is a database used for
reporting and data analysis.
08.10.2013 Seval Ünver | CENG 553 29
Data Mining works with Warehouse Data
08.10.2013 Seval Ünver | CENG 553 30
• Data Mining provides
the Enterprise with
intelligence
• Data Warehousing
provides the Enterprise
with a memory
Conceptual Modeling of Data Warehouses
• Modeling data warehouses: dimensions & measures
– Star schema: A fact table in the middle connected to a set of
dimension tables
– Snowflake schema: A refinement of star schema where
some dimensional hierarchy is normalized into a set of
smaller dimension tables, forming a shape similar to
snowflake
– Fact constellations: Multiple fact tables share dimension
tables, viewed as a collection of stars, therefore called
galaxy schema or fact constellation

As a Result
• In order to apply data mining, a large amount of
quality data is required.
• The aim of datamining is acquiring rules and
equations which can be used to predict future.
• To be successful on such a work is dependent on
working with database experts and data mining
specialists. They need to work together.
