Problem Desctipion: Information Mining Projects Software Engineering o Methods o Technics o Tools Metodologies: o CRISP-DM o P 3 TQ o SEMMA 85% [2000] and 60% [2005] of projects failed to achieve its goals The main problems (and associted risks) are not identified in the initial stages Feasibility Model
4
Feasibility Model for Information Mining Projects: 13 characteristics to be evaluated: o Categories: Plausibility Adequacy Sucess Procedure: Data Business Problem Project Project Team o Dimensions: Determining the value of each project features Interpreting the results Converting feature values into fuzzy intervals Calculating the value of each dimension Calculating the overall project feasibility
5
Validation – Proof Concept: o Step 1: Determining the value of each project features Project Objetive Detecting evidence of causality between general satisfaction and internet.

7
Validation – Comparison with real projects: 1)Apply the model into 25 real projects: o 22 projects finished successfully o 3 projects cancelled before completion 2)Request experts to appraise the project. 3)Compare the model’s result with project appraisal provided by experts. Statistical Analysis Wilcoxon signed-rank test

Validation – Comparison with real projects: (4) Statistical Analysis Plausibility Adequacy Sucess Overall Project Feasibility
11
Validation – Comparison with real projects: (5) Wilcoxon signed-rank test: Hypotheses : H 0 : there are no meaningful differences between the researchers and the model values (i.e. they are equivalent). H 1 : the researchers and the model values are not equivalent. Dimension Sum Ranks + ( W + ) Sum Ranks – ( W + ) Plausibility 97228 Adequacy 22798 Success 175150 Overall Feasibility 181144 level of significance = 0.01 quantity of non-zero pairs = 25 critical value = 68 Check Critical Value 97 > 68 H 0 accepted 98 > 68 H 0 accepted 150 > 68 H 0 accepted 144 > 68 H 0 accepted
12
Conclusions: A model to determine whether a data mining project is feasible or not at an early stage is proposed From the application of the model into real projects: Statistical Analysis: o the model tends to be more conservative than the experts o standard deviation range and average values are almost the same Wilcoxon signed-rank test the proposed model is equivalent to the appraisal performed by the experts.
