What  is  data  mining?  

•  Extrac4ng  non-­‐trivial  and  ac4onable  paNerns  from  data  (lots  of  data)  

•  Integrates  ideas  from  – Algorithms  – Databases  – Sta4s4cal  Inference  – Visualiza4on

Biochemistry  by  search  

“How do cells remember? What is the biochemical basis of memory?”

“Family tree” of > 3000 switches discovered by mining > 100 CPU years of simulation results

Biochemistry  by  search  

•  Which  combina4ons  of  reac4ons  endow  a  system  with  bistability?  

Experiences  redux  

•  Data  mining  research  can  be  organized  into  “horizontals”  and  “ver4cals”  

•  Data  mining  is  beneficial  when  – First-­‐principles  answers  are  not  available  –  Informa4on  integra4on  is  key  

                         Discovery  Analy4cs    Center  

•  A  new  ICTAS  center  focused  on  the  use  of  analy4cs  for  scien4fic  discovery  

•  Brings  together    – Core  faculty  from  CS,  STAT,  MATH,  ECE  – Applica4ons  faculty  from  various  other  departments  

•  Some  ini4al  areas  of  emphasis  –  Intelligence  analysis,  sustainability,  neuroscience
