Annotated Bibliography for the Research Proposal: Data Mining and Machine Learning

Introduction

The research proposal will focus on data mining, machine learning techniques and the application of both technologies in different sectors. Peer-reviewed sources will be used in this study. I obtained the references by searching on online libraries utilizing various keywords such as data mining, machine learning, and data mining and machine learning algorithms.

In this article, Battula and Prasad focus on recent machine learning strategies. They begin by providing a brief introduction in data mining and some of the techniques utilized such as classification and tree diagrams. The article is then divided into various subheadings, which tackle the basics of data mining, measures used for modern learning techniques, and several research studies related to the different learning strategies. Some of the recent machine learning techniques mentioned by the authors include vocabulary-learning strategy, active learning technique, and source domain sample among others. The authors conclude that new machine learning techniques are favorable than the traditional ones because they mimic human learning.

The article is well researched and contains concrete information, which I think will be useful for my research proposal. I am planning to incorporate some significant ideas of this article in my research study.

Ali and others focus on educating the reader on some of the modern techniques used in machine learning, data mining, crowdsourcing and big data, and the internet of things. The authors briefly describe some of the methods utilized in machine learning, and they include supervised learning, which entails various techniques such as Naive Bayes classifiers, decision trees, and support vector machines. The second type of machine learning is unsupervised learning followed by reinforcement learning, deep learning, association rule learning, and numeric prediction. Some of the strategies mentioned in data mining include predictive analytics and NoSQL. The article contains relevant information, which will play a significant part in my literature review. I will utilize this article for my research proposal.

In this article, the authors focus on data mining techniques and its other related tasks. They argue that data mining is relevant since it serves as an alternative to traditional methods that are deemed unsuitable due to the high dimensionality of data and the enormity of data. In the article, knowledge discovery in databases is used simultaneously with data mining since data mining is a crucial component of the KDD process. Some of the data mining techniques mentioned in the article include statistical approach through regression analysis, cluster analysis, and Bayesian network. Machine learning techniques mentioned in the article include decision tree induction, inductive concept learning, and conceptual learning. The authors also focus on data mining tools, applications, and challenges. The article focuses on various aspects of data mining and machine learning making it a relevant source to refer to when formulating my research proposal.

Silwattananusarn and Kulthida focus on the application of data mining in knowledge management process. The authors evaluate the use of data mining techniques through a literature review of articles published from 2007 to 2012. Data mining was found significant for efficient capturing, storing, retrieving, and transferring of data. Under knowledge resources, the authors found out that data mining can be used to assist healthcare organizations, financial institutions, small and middle businesses, and entrepreneurial science. In knowledge management, data mining was found to have the following uses clustering, classification, and dependency modeling. The article provides a broad overview of the application of data mining in knowledge management. For this case, I will incorporate and use the ideas in this article.
