1. Introduction & Data-Analytics Thinking
1.1 Data Science, Engineering & Data-Driven Decision Making
Two major component that support data-driven decision-making:
1. Data science: set of processes & methods that allow us to reach conclusions from data
in an automated fashion [most of the course focuses on this aspect]
2. Data engineering & Processing: set of technologies and processes that support the data
science component (includes the big data technologies along other relevant communication
and hardware infrastructures)

AI: set of paradigms that try to create intelligent behavior using computers.
Machine-learning tends to be the most successful AI in the world. There are other methods. Gather
lots of data, perform statistical method, predict future. Late 80s  attempted reasoning algorithms.
Creating new information. Less popular and less successful AI approach.
Computation: e.g. Google indexes the internet – it knows which term is on which page. Essentially
‘processing’ the data = computation.

1.1.1 The Data Mining Process - CRISP-DM
CRoss Industry Standard Process for Data Mining (CRISP-DM)
Data Science in Steps: An Iterative Process
1. Business understanding: Crucial to understand the problem to be solved (not trivial – what
exactly is the problem? Shouldn’t be too broad, else not realistic. Define the scope as
clearly as possible.)
2. Data understanding: What data is available? What are its strengths and
limitations? E.g. historical data is typically very useful, but in some situation it may not
be appropriate (may have been collected for a different purpose & may miss critical
information or be unreliable.) As we learn more about the available data & its
potential issues, we may want to go back to rethink the problem we want to
solve to refine those problems.
3. Data preparation: it is unlikely that the data we have can be directly used in
our model. There usually are restrictions on the format of the data that we use
as inputs. The data may need to be aggregated, manipulate its format,
normalize its values, etc. Usually a lot of time is spend on this step.
4. Modelling: here we create the models that will help us to answer the question
defined in the business understanding stage. This is where different data mining

1

, techniques will be applied. Different techniques require different format, hence why you may need to go back to the Data
preparation step.
5. Evaluation: The purpose of this stage is to assess the outcome of the modelling stage and determine whether the resulting
models are useful to help solve the problem. If outcomes are not good, may need to go back to the first Business understanding
stage and reassess whether we’re trying to solve the problem in the best way. If results are good, we move onto the last stage.
6. Deployment: results of the data mining output are put into real use in production – when the model is deployed, it starts
generating new information, which can be used to further refine the Business understanding. This could then prompt a new
iteration of the whole process.

these models. ‘what will happen’, can be asked
when you know the items are correlated) vs
causation (you have to know why things
happen. Causal dimension. What causes what.)

Data is Mostly Unstructured
Traditional systems have been
designed for transactional, not
unstructured data.

Google example:
[Google file system] redundant
storage of massive maounts of
data on cheap and unreliable
computers. storage that can be
stored across multiple
computers. It is internal within
Google itself to be able to crawl
the pages.
[MapReduce] distributed computing paradigm. aggregates all the results from the computers to
get an overview of all the results. This technology is also proprietary (owned exclusively by)
Google.

The term big data was first used by NASA
researchers Michael Cos & David Ellsworth in 1997:
“Data sets are generally quite large, taxing the
capacities of main memory, local disk, and even
remote disk, we call this the problem of big data”
Gained in popularity in the past decade:

2.1 Data for a Data Mining Project
Example: MegaTelCo wants to predict Churn.
- MegaTelCo is a large telecommunication firm in the United States
o They are having a major problem with customer retention in their wireless business.
o Their goal is to identify customers that are going to churn (stop being clients) so that they can try to retain them.
- Which data would be useful to predict churn?

Q: From which of the above systems should we collect data for a Data Mining project?
Almost any data source can be used in the context of a Data Mining project
 Data Mining is an exploratory process with uncertain outcomes
 Being able to collect data from different systems allows for fast prototyping and adjustments as needed
o Note: A proper engineering solution should be deployed once the prototype demonstrates its merits

Example: Purchase behaviour in a VoD system.
- Context: Telecom operator, providing TV, internet, fixed and mobile phone. 1.5M households;
o Video-on-demand (VoD) service: users pay between 1.99 and 5.99 per movie.
- Goals: Learn how consumers react to a change in prices of movies available for renting;
o Understand how consumers influence each other in this environment.
 Data sources used: o Movie catalogue (in advance) o Billing information (VoD purchases)
o CRM system (profile & demographics) o Call Detail Records (social network analysis)
o IMDB Votes & Ranking (movie quality)
