Data Mining

Data mining offers tools and techniques to bring the exploding universe of information into practical focus. Data mining makes use of information technology solutions to turn massive amounts of raw data into knowledge and patterns that experts can use to advance their fields.

At the Digital Technology Center (DTC), a group of talented and experienced researchers are taking data mining to the next level while compiling an impressive list of results in the growing area of data mining, including preventing attacks on computer networks, bolstering retail marketing and sales, and finding less invasive ways to diagnose and treat disease.

The DTC offers the University’s data mining faculty members the opportunity to connect with researchers from other disciplines and with industry. Those connections are helping expand the depth and breadth of data mining research.

The University of Minnesota is one of the world’s leading research centers in data mining. The faculty accomplishments have helped to demonstrate the potential of data mining in solving a wide range of practical problems.
