Data mining is the process of discovering
interesting patterns and knowledge from
large amounts of data.

Data The data sources include databases, data


warehouses, the web, other information
repositories, or data that are streamed into
Mining the system dynamically.

It is one of the steps in the knowledge


discovery process, but the essential one
because it uncovers hidden patterns for
evaluation.

To identify the insights and visions of the data.

Purpose of To analyze the data and then covert that data into
meaningful information, which helps the business to
take accurate and better decisions in an organization.
Data Helps to develop smart market decision, run accurate
Mining campaigns, make prediction and more.

Analyze customer behaviors and their insights that


leads to great success and data-driven business.

Clustering or Unsupervised Learning
Unsupervised learning when old data with class labels not available e.g., when
introducing a new product.

Group/ cluster existing customers based on time series of payment history such
that similar customers in same cluster.

Key requirement: Need a good measure of similarity between instances.

Identify micro-markets and develop policies for each.

Applications (Unsupervised Learning)
Customer segmentation e.g., for targeted marketing

• Group/cluster existing customers based on time series of payment history such that
similar customers in same cluster.

Collaborative filtering

• Group based common items purchased

Text clustering

Compression
