8. Why Data Mining? 7 Big Data However, we are drowning in data, but starving for knowledge! – There is often information “ hidden ” in the data that is not readily evident – Human analysts may take weeks to discover useful information – Much of the data is never analyzed at all

9. What is Data Mining Non-trivial extraction of implicit, previously unknown, and potentially useful information from data – a.k.a. KDD (knowledge discovery in databases) – Data to be mined Relational databases, data warehouses; Data streams and sensor data; Time-series data, temporal data, sequence data; Graphs, social networks and multi-linked data; Spatial data and spatiotemporal data; Multimedia data; Text data; WWW data – Knowledge to be obtained Characterization, discrimination, association, classification, clustering, trend/deviation, outlier analysis 8

10. The Goal: Decision Support Typical procedure – Data  Knowledge  Action/Decision  Goal Examples – Netflix collects user ratings of movies  What types of movies you will like  Recommend new movies to you  Users stay with Netflix – Gene sequences of cancer patients  Which genes lead to cancer?  Appropriate treatment  Save life – Road traffic  Which road is likely to be congested?  Suggest better routes to drivers  Save time and energy 9

11. Example: Association Rule Mining Data – A set of transactions, each of which consists of a set of items Association rules – A set of rules that characterize associations between items 10 Market-Basket transactions Rules Discovered: {Milk} --> {Coke} {Diaper, Milk} --> {Beer} Rules Discovered: {Milk} --> {Coke} {Diaper, Milk} --> {Beer}

12. Example: Classification Process – Construct models (functions) based on training data with known class labels – Describe and distinguish classes or concepts for future prediction – Predict testing data with unknown class labels Applications – Spam identification – Treatment prediction – Document categorization – …… 11

13. Ads Targeting 12 featuresclass labels a classifier: f(x)=y: features  class labels training testing

14. Fraud Detection 13 categorical continuous class Test Set Training Set Model Learn Classifier

15. Example: Clustering Goal – Finding groups of objects such that the objects in a group will be similar to one another and different from the objects in other groups 14

16. Example: Outlier Detection Outliers (Anomalies) – Global: observations inconsistent with rest of the dataset – Local: Observations inconsistent with their neighborhoods A local instability or discontinuity Applications – Fraud/intrusion detection – Customized marketing – Weather prediction 15 One persons noise could be another person’s signal. - Edward Ng

17. Data Mining Tasks Prediction Methods: Use some variables to predict unknown or future values of other variables – Classification – Regression – Outlier detection Description Methods: Find human-interpretable patterns that describe the data – Clustering – Association rule mining 16

18. Data Mining: Confluence of Multiple Disciplines 17 Data Mining Machine Learning Statistics Applications Algorithm Pattern Recognition High-Performance Computing Visualization Database Technology
