Why Data Mining?
The Explosive Growth of Data: from terabytes to petabytes
Data collection and data availability
Automated data collection tools, database systems, Web, computerized society
Major sources of abundant data
Business: Web, e-commerce, transactions, stocks, …
Science: Remote sensing, bioinformatics, scientific simulation, …
Society and everyone: news, digital cameras, YouTube
We are drowning in data, but starving for knowledge!
“Necessity is the mother of invention”—Data mining—Automated analysis of massive data sets
Evolution of Sciences
Before 1600, empirical science
1600-1950s, theoretical science
Each discipline has grown a theoretical component. Theoretical models often motivate experiments and generalize our understanding.
1950s-1990s, computational science
Over the last 50 years, most disciplines have grown a third, computational branch (e.g. empirical, theoretical, and computational ecology, or physics, or linguistics.)
Computational Science traditionally meant simulation. It grew out of our inability to find closed-form solutions for complex mathematical models.
1990-now, data science
The flood of data from new scientific instruments and simulations
The ability to economically store and manage petabytes of data online
The Internet and computing Grid that makes all these archives universally accessible
Scientific info. management, acquisition, organization, query, and visualization tasks scale almost linearly with data volumes. Data mining is a major new challenge!

Evolution of Database Technology
1960s:
Data collection, database creation, IMS and network DBMS
1970s:
Relational data model, relational DBMS implementation
1980s:
RDBMS, advanced data models (extended-relational, OO, deductive, etc.)
Application-oriented DBMS (spatial, scientific, engineering, etc.)
1990s:
Data mining, data warehousing, multimedia databases, and Web databases
2000s
Stream data management and mining
Data mining and its applications
Web technology (XML, data integration) and global information systems
Multi-Dimensional View of Data Mining
Data to be mined
Database data (extended-relational, object-oriented, heterogeneous, legacy), data warehouse, transactional data, stream, spatiotemporal, time-series, sequence, text and web, multi-media, graphs & social and information networks
Knowledge to be mined (or: Data mining functions)
Characterization, discrimination, association, classification, clustering, trend/deviation, outlier analysis, etc.
Descriptive vs. predictive data mining
Multiple/integrated functions and mining at multiple levels
Techniques utilized
Data-intensive, data warehouse (OLAP), machine learning, statistics, pattern recognition, visualization, high-performance, etc.
Applications adapted
Retail, telecommunication, banking, fraud analysis, bio-data mining, stock market analysis, text mining, Web mining, etc.
