-----------------------------------------------------------
Market Basket Analysis: Identifies associations between items in transactional data, helping in
Frequent Itemsets, Closed Itemsets, Association Rules: Frequent itemsets appear often in
transactions; closed itemsets are maximal frequent sets; association rules (e.g., X -> Y) reveal
Apriori Algorithm: A method to mine frequent itemsets by iteratively expanding itemsets and pruning
---------------------------------
Classification: A supervised learning technique that assigns labels to data points based on input
features.
Decision Tree Induction: Constructs a tree structure where nodes represent decisions, branches
Bayes Classification Methods: Probabilistic classifiers (e.g., Naive Bayes) that use Bayes' theorem
Rule-Based Classification: Uses IF-THEN rules to classify data based on conditions derived from
Model Evaluation: Measures classifier performance using metrics like accuracy, precision, recall, F1
---------------------------------
Linearly Separable Data: SVM finds an optimal hyperplane to separate data with the largest
possible margin.
Non-Linearly Separable Data: SVM uses kernel functions to project data into higher dimensions
------------------------------------------------
Clustering: Groups similar data points into clusters without predefined labels, revealing underlying
patterns.
Partitioning Methods: Divide data into k clusters based on minimizing intra-cluster distance (e.g.,
k-Means).
Hierarchical Methods: Build clusters either by merging smaller clusters (agglomerative) or splitting
Density-Based Methods: Identify clusters in dense regions and label sparse points as noise (e.g.,
DBSCAN).
Evaluation of Clustering: Measures clustering quality using methods like silhouette scores or the
elbow method.
---------------------------------------
Complex Data Mining: Analyzes non-tabular data like multimedia, text, spatial, and temporal
--------------------------------------
Ensemble Methods: Combine multiple models (e.g., Random Forest) to improve accuracy and
robustness.
Outlier Detection: Identifies anomalous data points that deviate significantly from the majority.
Time-Series Analysis: Discovers trends and patterns in sequential data, often for prediction.
----------------------------
Healthcare: Predicts diseases, clusters patient groups, and aids in risk assessment.
Social Media: Performs sentiment analysis, identifies trends, and builds recommendation algorithms.
Science: Analyzes genomic patterns, climate data, and other scientific datasets.
