Explain Motivation for Text Mining.

 Motivation for Text Mining

  • Text mining is well-motivated, due to the fact that much of the world’s data can be found in free text form (newspaper articles, emails, literature, etc.). There is a lot of information available to me.
  • While mining free text has the same goals as data mining, in general, extracting useful knowledge/stats/trends), text mining must overcome a major difficulty – there is no explicit structure.
  • Machines can reason will relational data well since schemas are explicitly available. Free text, however, encodes all semantic information within natural language. Our text mining algorithms, then, must make some sense out of this natural language representation. Humans are great at doing this, but this has proved to be a problem for machines.

What are different steps used in JDBC? Write down a small program showing all steps.

Suppose that a data warehouse for Big-University consists of the following four dimensions: student, course, semester, and instructor, and two measures count and avg_grade. When at the lowest conceptual level (e.g., for a given student, course, semester, and instructor combination), the avg_grade measure stores the actual course grade of the student. At higher conceptual levels, avg_grade stores the average grade for the given combination. a) Draw a snowflake schema diagram for the data warehouse. b) Starting with the base cuboid [student, course, semester, instructor], what specific OLAP operations (e.g., roll-up from semester to year) should one perform in order to list the average grade of CS courses for each BigUniversity student. c) If each dimension has five levels (including all), such as “student < major < status < university < all”, how many cuboids will this cube contain (including the base and apex cuboids)?
