Abstract

Each set of data can tell us a story. Our mission is to extract this story from the data and translate it into more readily accessible human language. There are a number of tools for such a translation. To prepare this story, we have to collect data, to ask interesting questions, and to apply all the possible data mining technical tools to find the answers. Then, we should verify the answers, exclude spurious (overoptimistic) correlations and patterns, and tell the story to users.
