    Introduction

    Data mining in huge data sets searches for secret, true, and potentially useful patterns. Data Mining is about finding between the data unsuspected/previously unknown relationships. It is a multidisciplinary skill that uses the technologies of machine learning, statistics, AI, and databases.
