DATA MINING

...is nothing else than torturing the data until it confesses…and if you torture it enough, you can get it to confess to anything (Fred Menger)

Data Mining 101 - Part 2
    Data Mining Classification

Classifying data mining concepts has been allways a sensitive subject in data mining. There are dozens of classifications of data mining with classes, sub-classes and sub-sub-classes. And sometimes a particular class may have dozens of names. So I'll never brag about being able to draw the complete picture. But I hope one can have at least an idea about the data mining techniques by looking at the classification below. I should also add that it refers only the "predictive" part of the data mining. The other part, the "descriptive" one, it relates more to statistics rather than data mining (correlations, ANOVA, Ztest, histograms, etc).
