  • Data Mining: DataMining refers to extracting on mining knowledge from large amount of data. • Data Mining Primitives: A data mining task can be specified in the form of a data mining query which is input to the data mining system
• 3.
  • A miningquery is defined in terms of the following  Task-Relevant Data  The Kind Of Knowledge to be Mined  Background Knowledge : Concept Hierarchies  Interestingness Measures  Presentation and Visualization of Discovered Pattern
• 4.
  TASK-RELEVANT DATA • Theset of task relevant data can be collected a relational query involving operation like selection , projection , join and aggregation. • The data collection process results in a new data relation called the initial data relation. • The initial relation may or may not correspond to a physical relation in the database. • Virtual relation are called views in the field of databases, the set of task-relevant data for data mining is called a minable view.
• 5.
  • The task-relevantdata can be specified by providing the following information:  The names of the database or data warehouse to be used  The names of the tables or data cubes containing the relevant data  Condition for selection the relevant data  The relevant attributes or dimensions  The data retrieved be grouped by certain attributes , such as “grouped by data”
• 6.
  • The setof task relevant data can be specified by condition based data filtering ,slicing or dicing of the data cube • For eg : A concept hierarchy on item that specifies that “home entertainment ” is at a higher concept level , composed of the lower concept level {“TV”,”CD player ”, ” VCR”} can be used in the collection of the task-relevant data.
• 7.
  THE KIND OFKNOWLEDGE TO BE MINED • The kinds of knowledge include concept description (characterization , discrimination ), association , classification , prediction , clustering , and evolution analysis. • These templates or metapatterns can be used to guide the discovery process. • For eg : age(X ,”30…39”) ^ income (X,”40K…49K”) =>buys (X,”VCR”) [2.2%,60%]

  BACKGROUND KNOWLEDGE :CONCEPT HIERARCHIES • Background knowledge is information about the domain to be mined that can be useful in the discovery process. • Background knowledge known as concept hierarchies. concept hierarchies allows the discovery of knowledge at multiple levels of abstraction. • concept hierarchies defines a sequence of mappings from a set of low-level concept to higher-level .

  Concept hierarchy
• 10.
  • concept hierarchiesis represented as a set of nodes organized in a tree , where each node , in itself , represents a concept. • There are four types of concept hierarchies :  Schema hierarchies  Set grouping hierarchies  Operation-derived hierarchies  Rule –based hierarchies.
• 11.
  • Schema hierarchies: is a total or partial order among attributes in the database schema. street < city < state < country • Set grouping hierarchies : organizes a values for a given attribute or dimension into groups of constants or range values. {young , middle-age) C all (age) {20…39} C young {40…59} C middle-aged • Operation-derived hierarchies : include the decoding of information- encoded string , information extraction from complex data objects. login-name < department < university < country forming a email address. • Rule –based hierarchies : set of rules and is evaluated dynamically based on the current database data and the rule definition. low_profit_margin(X) <= price( X,P1) ^ cost (X,P2) ^ (( P1-P2) < $50)

  INTERESTINGNESS MEASURES • Thenumber of uninteresting patterns returned by the process. This can be achieved by specifying interestingness measure that estimate the  simplicity,  certainty ,  utility and  novelty. • Each measure is associated with a threshold that can be controlled by the user.
• 13.
  • SIMPLICITY: Simplicity canbe viewed as functions of the pattern structure defined in terms of the pattern size in bits or the number of attributes or operators appearing in the pattern. for eg: rule length. • CERTAINTY: Each discovery pattern should have a measure of certainty associated with it that assesses the validity or trustworthiness of the pattern. A certainty measure for associated rules of the form “A=>B”, where A and B are set of items, is confidence. confidence(A=>B)= #_tuples_containing_both_A_and_B #_tuples_containing_A
• 14.
  • UTILITY: It canbe estimated by a utility function such as support. The support of an associated pattern refers to the percentage of task-relevant data tuples for which the pattern is true .for associated rules of the form “A=>B” where A and B are set of items, support(A=>B) = #_tuples_containing_both_A_and_B total_#_of_tuples • NOVELTY: It contribute new information or increased performed to the given pattern set. Novelty is removed redundant patterns. For eg: a data exception may be considered novel in it differs from that based on statistical model or user beliefs. location(X,”CANADA”) => buys( X,”SONY_TV”) [8%, 70%]

  PRESENTATION AND VISUALIZATIONOF DISCOVERED PATTERNS • Data mining system should be able to display the discovery patterns in multiple patterns such as rules, tables, crosstabs, pie charts, decision tree, cubes, or other visual representations . • Data mining system should employ concept hierarchies to implement drill-down and roll-up operation. So that users may discovery patterns at multiple levels of abstraction. • In addition pivoting, slicing and dicing operation ,the user in viewing generalized data and knowledge from different perspective.
