(Effective decision support systems (DSS) are quickly beco...)
Effective decision support systems (DSS) are quickly becoming key to businesses gaining a competitive advantage, and the effectiveness of these systems depends on the ability to construct, maintain, and extract information from data warehouses. While many still perceive data warehousing as a subdiscipline of management information systems (MIS), in fact many of its advances have and will continue to come from the computer science arena. Intelligent Data Warehousing presents the state of the art in data warehousing research and practice from a perspective that integrates business applications and computer science. It brings the intelligent techniques associated with artificial intelligence (AI) to the entire process of data warehousing, including data preparation, storage, and mining. Part I provides an overview of the main ideas and fundamentals of data mining, artificial intelligence, business intelligence, and data warehousing. Part II presents core materials on data warehousing, and Part III explores data analysis and knowledge discovery in the data warehousing environment, including how to perform intelligent data analysis and the discovery of influential association patterns. Bridging the gap between theoretical research and business applications, this book summarizes the main ideas behind recent research developments rather than setting forth technical details, and it presents case studies that show the how-to's of implementing these ideas. The result is a practical, first-of-its-kind book that brings together scattered research, unites MIS with computer science, and melds intelligent techniques with data warehousing.

(An expert guide for applying data mining with uncertain r...)
An expert guide for applying data mining with uncertain reasoning to a wide range of uses This volume presents a holistic view of data mining by integrating this diverse and exciting field with uncertain reasoning. It treats a wide range of issues and examines the state of the art in both fields while summarizing vital concepts that can normally only be found in various separate resources. The author concentrates on practical aspects of data mining-such as infrastructure and overall processes-but also discusses some selected algorithms and performance-related issues. Several important topics are addressed specifically, such as bridging the fields of machine learning and data mining and the discovery of influential association rules. In addition, the author discusses data warehousing as an enabling technique for data mining. Case studies are included throughout to illustrate important concepts. Data Mining and Uncertain Reasoning is a practical reference for practitioners in various interrelated fields. Each subject is treated with both basic introductory and advanced technical descriptions, making the book suitable for students and practitioners at various levels of experience.
