Master the Art of Data Mining

The overall goal of data mining is to extract information from a data set and transform it into a comprehensible structure for further use.

Data mining is the process of extracting and discovering patterns in large data sets using methods from machine learning, statistics, and database systems.

Some aspects involved in data mining include database and data management, data pre-processing, model and inference considerations, interestingness metrics, complexity considerations, post-processing of discovered structures, visualization, and online updating.
