Java Data Mining Concepts - Java Data Mining: Strategy, Standard, and Practice - page 165

7.6 Summary

This chapter illustrated various JDM concepts related to data specifi-
cations, classification, regression, attribute importance, association
rules, and clustering functions. We saw that data specifications are
divided into physical and logical specifications to facilitate reusabil-
ity. Model build settings provide function-specific settings and algo-
rithm settings that are used to tune the models for problem-specific
requirements. JDM provides test metrics for supervised models to
understand model quality. JDM supports model apply for super-
vised and clustering models, providing control over the output val-
ues. JDM defines algorithm settings for decision tree, support vector
machine, naïve bayes, feed forward neural networks, and k-means
algorithm settings. In the next chapter we explore how these con-
cepts are mapped to Java classes and interfaces in JDM.
