Content
The unit will begin with an introduction to the standard data mining processes such as CRISP-DM, then explain the requirements of business intelligence, in the context of customer relationship management. Methods to be taught in this unit includes variants of association rule discovery (for basket analysis); prediction techniques such as inductive inference of decision trees and Bayes models (for market prediction), clustering techniques such as self-organization maps (for market segmentation), but with emphasis on real world applications. A selection of recent real world business intelligence case studies will be incorporated in this unit to illustrate the introduced techniques.
