Use Microsoft Word to create a concise Project
Proposal for Knowledge Discovery in Databases, 1-2 single-spaced pages in
length, containing the following sections:
oIntroduction
This section provides
an overview of your project and then makes a statement of proposal.
Define the area of research that is the focus of your project;
define the context and the knowledge base the research is based on.
oProject Goals
This section concisely
states the goals of your project. Examples of goals are listed in the KDD Cup
pages (see examples on.kdnuggets.com/datasets/kddcup.html”>http://www.kdnuggets.com/datasets/kddcup.html). It should include the questions the project
intends to answer. Describe the problem(s) to be solved, as a set of
general questions the data mining system will provide insight into, and the
intended users.
oDataset
List the size of the
dataset of your choice by specify the number of attributes, domain of
attributes, number of rows, percentage of missing values, and
format. Just a reminder, you should choice a dataset from the UCI
Knowledge Discovery in Databases Archive,.ics.uci.edu/”>http://kdd.ics.uci.edu/.
oTools
Briefly describe the data mining tools you
plan to use (SAS, WEKA, Clementine …) and the approaches you will use
(association rules, classification J4.8, evolution analysis…). KDDnuggets
home (.kdnuggets.com/software/index.html”>http://www.kdnuggets.com/software/index.html) contains a list of software with brief
explanations of their functions. Some software are free and some do
not. I suggest that you utilize WEKA as it is a free tool and it supports
data preprocessing, classification, association, and clustering.

The UCI Knowledge Discovery in Databases
Archive,.ics.uci.edu/summary.task.type.html”>http://kdd.ics.uci.edu/summary.task.type.html, classifies datasets based on mining
task such as Classification, Clustering … etc. You are suggested to
reference your dataset’ task type to decide your project approach.
