b) What is a concept hierarchy? Explain with the help of an example.

c) Formally define association rule mining problem.

d) How can you select which modelling technique to use for data mining?

e) What is a confusion matrix? Explain with the help of an example.

f) Differentiate between document classification and document clustering analysis.

g) Explain attribute oriented induction.

2.

Predicted True Predicted False
Actual 25 75
True
Actual 40 60
False
