OLAP Conceptual Data Model
 Goal of OLAP is to support ad-hoc querying for the
business analyst
 Business analysts are familiar with spreadsheets
 Extend spreadsheet analysis model to work with
warehouse data
 Multidimensional view of data is the foundation of
OLAP

OLTP vs. OLAP
 On-Line Transaction Processing (OLTP):
– technology used to perform updates on operational
or transactional systems (e.g., point of sale systems)
 On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP):
– technology used to perform complex analysis of the
data in a data warehouse
OLAP is a category of software technology that enables analysts,
managers, and executives to gain insight into data through fast,
consistent, interactive access to a wide variety of possible views
of information that has been transformed from raw data to reflect
the dimensionality of the enterprise as understood by the user.

Operations in Multidimensional Data
Model
• Aggregation (roll-up)
– dimension reduction: e.g., total sales by city
– summarization over aggregate hierarchy: e.g., total sales by city
and year -> total sales by region and by year
• Selection (slice) defines a subcube
– e.g., sales where city = Palo Alto and date = 1/15/96
• Navigation to detailed data (drill-down)
– e.g., (sales - expense) by city, top 3% of cities by average
income
• Visualization Operations (e.g., Pivot)

WOLAP

Relational DBMS as Warehouse
Server
• Schema design
• Specialized scan, indexing and join
techniques
• Handling of aggregate views (querying and
materialization)
• Supporting query language extensions
beyond SQL
• Complex query processing and optimization
• Data partitioning and parallelism

MOLAP vs. OLAP
• Commercial offerings of both types are
available
• In general, MOLAP is good for smaller
warehouses and is optimized for canned
queries
• In general, ROLAP is more flexible and
leverages relational technology on the data
server and uses a ROLAP server as
intermediary. May pay a performance penalty
to realize flexibility

Data Mining: A brief overview
Discovering patterns in data

Intelligent Problem Solving
• Knowledge = Facts + Beliefs + Heuristics
• Success = Finding a good-enough answer
with the resources available
• Search efficiency directly affects success

Focus on Knowledge
• Several difficult problems do not have
tractable algorithmic solutions
• Human experts achieve high level of
performance through the application of
quality knowledge
• Knowledge in itself is a resource.
Extracting it from humans and putting it
in computable forms reduces the cost of
knowledge reproduction and exploitation

Value of Information
• Exponential growth in information storage
• Tremendous increase in information
retrieval
• Information is a factor of production
• Knowledge is lost due to information
overload

KDD vs. DM
• Knowledge discovery in databases
– “non-trivial extraction of implicit, previously
unknown and potentially useful knowledge
from data”
• Data mining
– Discovery stage of KDD

Knowledge discovery in databases
• Problem definition
• Data selection
• Cleaning
• Enrichment
• Coding and organization
• DATA MINING
• Reporting

Problem Definition
• Examples
– What factors affect treatment compliance?
– Are there demographic differences in drug
effectiveness?
– Does patient retention differ among doctors
and diagnoses?

Data Selection
• Which patients?
• Which doctors?
• Which diagnoses?
• Which treatments?
• Which visits?
• Which outcomes?

Cleaning
• Removal of duplicate records
• Removal of records with gaps
• Enforcement of check constraints
• Removal of null values
• Removal of implausible frequent values

Enrichment
• Supplementing operational data with
outside data sources
– Pharmacological research results
– Demographic norms
– Epidemiological findings
– Cost factors
– Medium range predictions

Coding and Organizing
• Un-Normalizing
• Rescaling
• Nonlinear transformations
• Categorizing
• Recoding, especially of null values

Reporting
• Key findings
• Precision
• Visualization
• Sensitivity analysis

Why Data Mining?
 Claims analysis - determine which medical procedures
are claimed together.
 Predict which customers will buy new policies.
 Identify behavior patterns of risky customers.
 Identify fraudulent behavior.
 Characterize patient behavior to predict office visits.
 Identify successful medical therapies for different
illnesses.

Data Mining Methods
• Verification
– OLAP flavors
– Browsing of data or querying of data
– Human assisted exploration of data
• Discovery
– Using algorithms to discover rules or patterns

Data Mining Methods
• Artificial neural networks: Non-linear predictive models that learn
through training and resemble biological neural networks in structure.
• Genetic algorithms: Optimization techniques that use processes such
as genetic combination, mutation, and natural selection in a design based
on the concepts of natural evolution.
• Decision trees: Tree-shaped structures that represent sets of decisions.
These decisions generate rules for the classification of a dataset.
• Nearest neighbor method: A technique that classifies each record in a
dataset based on a combination of the classes of the k record(s) most
similar to it in a historical dataset (where k 1). Sometimes called the k-
nearest neighbor technique.
• Rule induction: The extraction of useful if-then rules from data based on
statistical significance.
• Data visualization: The visual interpretation of complex relationships in
multidimensional data. Graphics tools are used to illustrate data
relationships.

Types of discovery
• Association
– identifying items in a collection that occur together
• popular in marketing
• Sequential patterns
– associations over time
• Classification
– predictive modeling to determine if an item
belongs to a known group
• treatment at home vs. at the hospital
• Clustering
– discovering groups or categories

Association: A simple example
• Total transactions in a hardware store = 1000
• number which include hammer = 50
• number which include nails = 80
• number which include lumber = 20
• number which include hammer and nails = 15
• number which include nails and lumber = 10
• number which include hammer, nails and
lumber = 5

Association Example
• Support for hammer and nails = .015
(15/1000)
• Support for hammer, nails and lumber = .005
(5/1000)
• Confidence of “hammer ==>nails” =.3 (15/50)
• Confidence of “nails ==> hammer”=15/80
• Confidence of “hammer and nails ===>
lumber” = 5/15
• Confidence of “lumber ==> hammer and
nails” = 5/20

Association: Summary
• Description of relationships observed in
data
• Simple use of bayes theorem to identify
conditional probabilities
• Useful if data is representative to take
action

Probabilities

A Medical Test
A doctor must treat a patient who has a tumor. He
knows that 70 percent of similar tumors are benign. He
can perform a test, but the test is not perfectly
accurate. If the tumor is malignant, long experience
with the test indicates that the probability is 80 percent
that the test will be positive, and 10 percent that it will
be negative; 10 percent of the tests are inconclusive. If
the tumor is benign, the probability is 70 percent that
the test will be negative, 20 percent that it will be
positive; again, 10 percent of the tests are
inconclusive. What is the significance of a positive or
negative test?

Rule-based Systems
A rule-based system consists of a data
base containing the valid facts, the rules
for inferring new facts and the rule
interpreter for controlling the inference
process
• Goal-directed
• Data-directed
• Hypothesis-directed

Classification
• Identify the characteristics that indicate the
group to which each case belongs
– pneumonia patients: treat at home vs. treat in
the hospital
– several methods available for classification
• regression
• neural networks
• decision trees

Generic Approach
• Given data set with a set of independent
variables (key clinical findings, demographics,
lab and radiology reports) and dependent
variables (outcome)
• Partition into training and evaluation data set
• Choose classification technique to build a model
• Test model on evaluation data set to test
predictive accuracy

Multiple Regression
• Statistical Approach
– independent variables: problem
characteristics
– dependent variables: decision
• the general form of the relationship has to be
known in advance (e.g., linear, quadratic, etc.)

Neural Nets
Source: GMS Lab,UIUC

Neural networks
• Nodes are variables
• Weights on links by training the network
on the data
• Model designer has to make choices
about the structure of the network and
the technique used to determine the
weights
• Once trained on the data, the neural
network can be used for prediction

Neural Networks: Summary
• widely used classification technique
• mostly used as a black box for
predictions after training
• difficult to interpret the weights on the
links in the network
• can be used with both numeric and
categorical data
