Data mining process model published and piloted
=================================
Second CRISP-DM Workshop Held

London, May 1998 - More than 20 key players in the data mining market
have met to discuss the first draft of a new process model, CRISP-DM.

The model is designed to help businesses plan and work through the
complete data mining process – from problem specification to 
deployment
of results.

The CRISP-DM initiative - “CRoss-Industry Standard Process for Data
Mining” – is partially funded by the European Commission. The core
consortium consists of NCR, ISL, Daimler-Benz and OHRA.

The first draft of CRISP-DM has already been piloted in applications 
at
Mercedes-Benz and OHRA. Initial results are said to be very positive.
At the centre of the CRISP-DM project is a Special Interest Group 
(SIG)
of data mining tool and service suppliers, together with large-scale
commercial users. The SIG continues to grow, and there are now more 
than

80 members world-wide.

This, the second SIG workshop, built on the presentations and
discussions from the first workshop held in Amsterdam last November. 
SIG

members, including IBM and Data Distilleries, provided input from
project experience and feedback on the draft process model.

The CRISP-DM partners presented the latest developments to the process
model, based on experience from commercial data mining projects using
the initial process model, and on input from the SIG members. They 
also
demonstrated integrated software support for the process, in ISL’s
Clementine Data Mining System.

"The changes we made have been welcomed by others in the field who 
will
play a vital part in establishing CRISP-DM as the de facto standard 
for
data mining," said Jens Hejlesen of NCR, CRISP-DM project manager.
"CRISP-DM has an important role in allowing companies to leverage
investment in data warehousing through data mining."

Members are still being recruited for the CRISP-DM SIG, and further
workshops are planned during the next few months. The finalised 
CRISP-DM

model is due to be published by the end of the year.
