Visualization or Visual Data Mining

Visual data mining uses visualization techniques to discover useful knowledge from large datasets. It involves integrating data visualization, visualizing data mining results, and allowing interactive visual exploration of the data mining process. The goal is to provide qualitative overviews of data and help users gain insights into patterns, trends, relationships and interesting regions of data.

Visualization

 Purpose of Visualization
 Gain insight into an information space by mapping data
onto graphical primitives
 Provide qualitative overview of large data sets
 Search for patterns, trends, structure, irregularities,
relationships among data.
 Help find interesting regions and suitable parameters
for further quantitative analysis.
 Provide a visual proof of computer representations
derived

Visual Data Mining & Data Visualization

 Integration of visualization and data mining


 data visualization

 data mining result visualization

 data mining process visualization

 interactive visual data mining

 Data visualization
 Data in a database or data warehouse can be viewed

 at different levels of abstraction

 as different combinations of attributes or

dimensions
 Data can be presented in various visual forms

5
Data Mining Result Visualization

 Presentation of the results or knowledge obtained from


data mining in visual forms
 Examples
 Scatter plots and boxplots (obtained from descriptive
data mining)
 Decision trees
 Association rules
 Clusters
 Outliers
 Generalized rules

Data Mining Process Visualization

 Presentation of the various processes of data mining in


visual forms so that users can see
 Data extraction process
 Where the data is extracted
 How the data is cleaned, integrated, preprocessed,
and mined
 Method selected for data mining
 Where the results are stored
 How they may be viewed

Interactive Visual Data Mining

 Using visualization tools in the data mining process to


help users make smart data mining decisions
 Example
 Display the data distribution in a set of attributes
using colored sectors or columns (depending on
whether the whole space is represented by either a
circle or a set of columns)
 Use the display to which sector should first be
selected for classification and where a good split point
for this sector may be
