Data mining is the process of discovering meaningful patterns, trends, and relationships within large datasets using statistical methods, machine learning, and database systems. It helps organizations transform raw data into actionable insights that support decision-making, prediction, and optimization. In artificial intelligence, data mining plays a critical role in preparing training data, identifying correlations, and improving model accuracy. Common techniques include clustering, classification, regression, and association rule learning. Data mining is widely applied in industries such as finance, healthcare, marketing, and cybersecurity to detect fraud, forecast behavior, and uncover hidden opportunities.
