How to Use IBM SPSS Modeler
You can use IBM® SPSS® Modeler for ad-hoc analysis on your data to discover previous hidden patterns or trends. However, to get real value from this powerful piece of software, you need a more careful, methodical approach.
A simple, structured approach might go something like this:
- Understand your business and what you are trying to achieve with data mining
- Examine and understand your data
- Prepare the data for analysis and modeling
- Build predictive models
- Evaluate the models to verify that they are correct
- Deploy the models into your organization
This sequence is actually the basis for a more in-depth structured approach to data mining known as CRISP-DM, which stands for Cross-Industry Standard Process for Data Mining. IBM SPSS Modeler is specifically designed to work hand-in-hand with this approach.
