Data Mining and Predictive Analytics
Data mining is a
business process - a way of finding patterns in your data that provides
insight you can use to conduct your business more effectively. Data
mining also makes predictions to guide customer interactions and other
business decisions. Data mining is not a single topic; it's a loosely
related collection of tools, algorithms, techniques, and processes. Much
of what's behind data mining is advanced mathematical theory and
statistical inference. Data mining shines with very large collections of
data.
Because data is growing at such a phenomenal rate, the ability to
capture and store business data has far outpaced the ability to process
and utilize it. This growing challenge has produced massive, data
warehouses that are effectively write-only; data is deposited to merely
rest in peace. This situation is a significant waste of potential
business intelligence (BI).
E-commerce websites serve
as a good example of how companies overlook the valuable nature of data
assets and do not exploit true data mining -- significant knowledge about
customer buying patterns, association rules for shopping cart analysis,
and classification rules remain unexplored and unutilized.

deficiencies, AMULET’s BI services can help. We provide professional
data mining consulting services. We design, develop, and deploy custom
