Data Mining Systems

This document discusses data mining systems and how they can be classified. Data mining systems integrate techniques from areas like spatial data analysis, information retrieval, and pattern recognition. They can be classified based on the database technology used, whether it uses statistics, machine learning, or other approaches. Data mining systems are also classified based on the type of databases, knowledge, techniques, or applications they are adapted for, such as finance, telecommunications, or DNA analysis. The document outlines different integration schemes for how data mining systems can be coupled with database or data warehouse systems, from no coupling to tight coupling.

Data mining systems

There is a large variety of data mining systems available. Data


mining systems may integrate techniques from the following −

 Spatial Data Analysis


 Information Retrieval
 Pattern Recognition
 Image Analysis
 Signal Processing
 Computer Graphics
 Web Technology
 Business
 Bioinformatics

Data Mining System Classification


A data mining system can be classified according to the following
criteria −

 Database Technology
 Statistics
 Machine Learning
 Information Science
 Visualization
 Other Disciplines

Apart from these, a data mining system can also be classified based
on the kind of (a) databases mined, (b) knowledge mined, (c)
techniques utilized, and (d) applications adapted.

Classification Based on the Databases Mined

We can classify a data mining system according to the kind of


databases mined. Database system can be classified according to
different criteria such as data models, types of data, etc. And the
data mining system can be classified accordingly.
For example, if we classify a database according to the data model,
then we may have a relational, transactional, object-relational, or
data warehouse mining system.

Classification Based on the kind of Knowledge Mined

We can classify a data mining system according to the kind of


knowledge mined. It means the data mining system is classified on
the basis of functionalities such as −

 Characterization
 Discrimination
 Association and Correlation Analysis
 Classification
 Prediction
 Outlier Analysis
 Evolution Analysis

Classification Based on the Techniques Utilized

We can classify a data mining system according to the kind of


techniques used. We can describe these techniques according to the
degree of user interaction involved or the methods of analysis
employed.

Classification Based on the Applications Adapted

We can classify a data mining system according to the applications


adapted. These applications are as follows −

 Finance
 Telecommunications
 DNA
 Stock Markets
 E-mail

Integrating a Data Mining System with a DB/DW System


If a data mining system is not integrated with a database or a data
warehouse system, then there will be no system to communicate
with. This scheme is known as the non-coupling scheme. In this
scheme, the main focus is on data mining design and on developing
efficient and effective algorithms for mining the available data sets.

The list of Integration Schemes is as follows −

 No Coupling − In this scheme, the data mining system does not


utilize any of the database or data warehouse functions. It
fetches the data from a particular source and processes that
data using some data mining algorithms. The data mining
result is stored in another file.
 Loose Coupling − In this scheme, the data mining system may
use some of the functions of database and data warehouse
system. It fetches the data from the data respiratory managed
by these systems and performs data mining on that data. It
then stores the mining result either in a file or in a designated
place in a database or in a data warehouse.
 Semi−tight Coupling − In this scheme, the data mining system is
linked with a database or a data warehouse system and in
addition to that, efficient implementations of a few data mining
primitives can be provided in the database.
 Tight coupling − In this coupling scheme, the data mining
system is smoothly integrated into the database or data
warehouse system. The data mining subsystem is treated as
one functional component of an information system.
