Data Mining and Financial Data Analysis
Research shows that data mining, that is, finding patterns among large amounts of data, might be the secret behind corporate success, especially in the business world. As computers have proliferated, most businesses now routinely collect large volumes of data about their customers and their transactions. Telecommunications companies and credit card issuers, for example, track phone calls and transactions by millions of customers. Data mining uses sophisticated models drawn from fields ranging from statistics, computer science, and artificial intelligence to explore through billions of bits of data for small pieces of information. Ultimately, that information can translate into knowledge and insights about customers and markets and make the difference.
The main themes covered in this module are:
- an overview of data mining and financial data analysis techniques
- identification of appropriate analysis techniques and data requirements
- predictive and data mining/analysis techniques for competitive advantage.
