An Overview of Data Mining Techniques and Applications and its Future Scope

Abstract

Data mining is a process which finds useful patterns from large amount of data. The paper discusses few of the data mining techniques, algorithms and some of the organizations which have adapted data mining technology to improve their businesses and found excellent results. The greater part of data mining methods can manage distinctive information sorts.Data mining may be defined as the science of extracting useful information from databases. It also called knowledge discovery. Using a combination of machine learning, statistical analysis, modeling techniques and database technology, data mining finds patterns and subtle relationships in data and infers rules that allow the prediction of future.
