Chapter 3 Topic - 5

This document discusses data warehousing and data mining. It defines a data warehouse as a subject-oriented, integrated, time-variant and non-volatile collection of data that helps analysts make informed decisions. Data mining functions can be integrated with OLAP operations to enhance interactive knowledge mining from data warehouses at multiple abstraction levels. This allows data warehouses to serve as important platforms for data analysis, OLAP, and knowledge discovery through data mining of hidden patterns and associations.

TOPIC
From Data Warehousing
to
Data Mining

2
INTRODUCTION
 The term "Data Warehouse" was first coined by Bill
Inmon in 1990.
 According to Inmon, a data warehouse is a subject
oriented, integrated, time-variant, and non-volatile
collection of data.
 This data helps analysts to take informed decisions in
an organization..

Mining

 Data mining functions such as association,


clustering, classification, prediction can be
integrated with OLAP operations to enhance
the interactive mining of knowledge at
multiple level of abstraction.
 That's why data warehouse has now become an
important platform for data analysis and online
analytical processing.

4
Understanding a Data Warehouse

 A data warehouse is a database, which is kept separate


from the organization's operational database.
 There is no frequent updating done in a data
warehouse.
 It possesses consolidated historical data, which helps
the organization to analyze its business.
 A data warehouse helps executives to organize,
understand, and use their data to take strategic
decisions.
 Data warehouse systems help in the integration of
diversity of application systems.
 A data warehouse system helps in consolidated
historical data analysis.

Types of Data Warehouse
 Information Processing - A data warehouse allows to
process the data stored in it. The data can be processed by
means of querying, basic statistical analysis, reporting
using crosstabs, tables, charts, or graphs.
 Analytical Processing - A data warehouse supports
analytical processing of the information stored in it. The
data can be analyzed by means of basic OLAP operations,
including slice-and-dice, drill down, drill up, and pivoting.
 Data Mining - Data mining supports knowledge discovery
by finding hidden patterns and associations, constructing
analytical models, performing classification and
prediction. These mining results can be presented using the
visualization tools.

From Data Warehousing (OLAP) to Data Mining
(OLAM)

Importance of OLAM
 High quality of data in data warehouses
 Available information processing
infrastructure surrounding data warehouses
 OLAP−based exploratory data analysis
 Online selection of data mining functions

8
High quality of data in data warehouses −
 The data mining tools are required to work on
integrated, consistent, and cleaned data. These
steps are very costly in the preprocessing of
data. The data warehouses constructed by such
preprocessing are valuable sources of high
quality data for OLAP and data mining as well.

9
Available information processing infrastructure
surrounding data warehouses −
 Information processing infrastructure refers to
accessing, integration, consolidation, and
transformation of multiple heterogeneous
databases, web-accessing and service facilities,
reporting and OLAP analysis tools.

10
OLAP−based exploratory data analysis −
 Exploratory data analysis is required for
effective data mining. OLAM provides facility
for data mining on various subset of data and
at different levels of abstraction.

11
Online selection of data mining functions
 Integrating OLAP with multiple data mining
functions and online analytical mining provide
users with the flexibility to select desired data
mining functions and swap data mining tasks
dynamically.
