Bordass et al., 2004

5 D A T A M I N I N G A P P R O A C H E S Techniques that take advantage of large-scale data sets to detect patterns of behavior Information extraction from data (classification techniques) Provide knowledge about structure and interrelation among data (association techiques) Create models predicting future events (decision trees) Some applications: Market sales: actionable associations between buying diapers and beer on thursdays (product placement) Witten and Frank (2005) Telecomunication companies: identify clients needs and trends relater to household charactericts McCarty (1997) Political campaign operatives: identify potential supporters by datamining of database of existing voters Esdall (2006) Patterns of energy related behavior?
