One of the main problems for data mining is that the number of possible relationships is very large, thus prohibiting the search for the correct ones by simple validating each of them. Hence, we need intelligent search strategies, as taken from the area of machine learning.

Great op-ed in The New York Times on why the NSA's data mining efforts won't work, by Jonathan Farley, math professor at Harvard. ... If this argument is correct why do we think that the NSA has the math skills to crack very difficult cryptography but cannot handle other pattern matching problems?

One of the key issues raised by data mining technology is not a business or technological one, but a social one. It is the issue of individual privacy. Data mining makes it possible to analyze routine business transactions and glean a significant amount of information about individuals buying habits and preferences.

How exactly is data mining able to tell you important things that you didn't know or what is going to happen next? The technique that is used to perform these feats in data mining is called modeling. Modeling is simply the act of building ...

Abstract: Although most data mining (DM) models are complex and general in nature, the implementation of such models in specific environments us often subject to practical constraints (e.g. budget constraints) or thresholds (e.g. only mail to customers with an expected profit higher than ...
