Extraction is the service of extracting information from a source system for additional help in a data warehouse environment. It is the first procedure of the ETL process. After the extraction, this data can be changed and loaded into the data warehouse. The source systems for a data warehouse are ... Read More

An artificial neural network is a system located on the services of biological neural networks. It is a simulation of a biological neural system. The characteristic of artificial neural networks is that there are multiple architectures, which consequently needed several methods of algorithms, but despite being a complex system, a ...

Operational DatabaseThe Operational Database is the source of data for the data warehouse. It contains detailed data used to run the normal operations of the business. The data generally changes as updates are created and reflect the latest value of the final transactions. It is also called OLTP (Online Transactions ... Read More

Pruning is the procedure that decreases the size of decision trees. It can decrease the risk of overfitting by defining the size of the tree or eliminating areas of the tree that support little power. Pruning supports by trimming the branches that follow anomalies in the training information because of ... Read More

A decision tree is a flow-chart-like tree mechanism, where each internal node indicates a test on an attribute, each department defines an outcome of the test, and leaf nodes describe classes or class distributions. The highest node in a tree is the root node.Algorithms for learning Decision TreesAlgorithm − Create ... Read More

There are two types of statistical-based algorithms which are as follows −Regression − Regression issues deal with the evaluation of an output value located on input values. When utilized for classification, the input values are values from the database and the output values define the classes. Regression can be used ... Read More

There are the following pre-processing steps that can be used to the data to facilitate boost the accuracy, effectiveness, and scalability of the classification or prediction phase which are as follows −Data cleaning − This defines the pre-processing of data to eliminate or reduce noise by using smoothing methods and ...

Classification is a data mining approach used to forecast team membership for data instances. It is a two-step procedure. In the first step, a model is built defining a predetermined set of data classes or approaches. The model is developed by considering database tuples defined by attributes.Each tuple is considered ... Read More

Genetic algorithms are mathematical structures using the procedure of genetic inheritance. They have been successfully used to a broad variety of analytic issues. Data mining can connect human understanding with automatic analysis of information to find a design or key relationships.Given a large database represented over several variables, the objective ...

A neural network is an array of algorithms that endeavors to identify fundamental relationships in a set of data through a process that mimics the techniques the human brain operates. In this sense, neural networks refer to systems of neurons, either organic or artificial.Neural networks are applicable in virtually every ... Read More
