Mastering SQL Server 2014 Data Mining

By: Amarpreet Singh Bassan, Debarchan Sarkar

Overview of this book

<p>Whether you are new to data mining or are a seasoned expert, this book will provide you with the skills you need to successfully create, customize, and work with Microsoft Data Mining Suite. Starting with the basics, this book will cover how to clean the data, design the problem, and choose a data mining model that will give you the most accurate prediction.</p> <p>Next, you will be taken through the various classification models such as the decision tree data model, neural network model, as well as Naïve Bayes model. Following this, you'll learn about the clustering and association algorithms, along with the sequencing and regression algorithms, and understand the data mining expressions associated with each algorithm. With ample screenshots that offer a step-by-step account of how to build a data mining solution, this book will ensure your success with this cutting-edge data mining system.</p>

Deploying data models

In this section, we will discuss the deployment of the data mining algorithms with their periodic updates.

Usually, we do not need to deploy the data mining models explicitly as processing and deploying is required before we perform the validation and prediction of the variable that we are interested in.

We can also explicitly deploy the data mining models by right-clicking on the model name in the Solution Explorer tab and then clicking on the Process. We will get the following screen:

Clicking on Yes will deploy the project as an Analysis Services database and then we can proceed to the processing phase with the following screen:

When we click on Run, we usually issue a full processing request. We can also select a request from other processing options by clicking on the specific option from the processing option's drop-down menu.

When the processing is complete, we will encounter a window similar to the following one:

Usually, the deployment is incremental in nature, which...
