In the previous chapter, we defined the dynamic part of our data mining activities, understanding how a data mining project should be organized in terms of phases, input, and output. In this chapter, we are going to set our scene, defining the static part of our data mining projects, the data mining architecture.
How do we organize data bases, scripts, and output within our project? This is the question this chapter is going to answer. We are going to look at:
- The general structure of data mining architecture
- How to build such kind of structure with R
This is a really useful chapter, especially if you are approaching the data mining activity for the first time, and no matter the programming language, since it will let you gain a first view on what you will typically find in a data mining environment. No matter whether...
