In this assignment, you will consider the role of the Cross Industry Standard Process for Data Mining (CRISP-DM) model used in analyzing (data mining) data to convert data into knowledge.

Tasks

According to the CRISP-DM model, data mining is a process that consists of six phases:

  1. Business Understanding
  2. Data Understanding
  3. Data Preparation
  4. Modeling
  5. Evaluation
  6. Deployment

Give a brief description of each phase. What are its inputs and outputs? Do you believe all six phases are important to generate a valid model, or do you think we can skip some of them?
