  1. ISM 250: Data Mining and Business AnalyticsLecture 1 Ram Akella TIM/UCSC akella@soe.ucsc.edu 650-279-3078

  2. Course Structure • Business Analytics and context • Data Mining • Integration of two closely related topics via projects • Theory, practice, industry/university experts • Lectures, lab, projects • Additional topic: Starting a company, and technology management

  3. Course Philosophy • Instructor provokes thought, stimulates, integrates • Students work ahead and after class, reading to prepare, work on labs and projects with Silicon Valley firms • Web has a great deal of information • Instructors role is to clarify, deepen understanding, help digest and integrate, and achieve new insights, problem solving and research

  4. Grading • (May alter to weight project/term/research paper more heavil, if of sufficiently high quality) • Weekly Homework on fundamental topics, quizzes/final, Comprehensive Course Project/term paper (including presentation to class) • Homework: 20% • Quizzes and final: 30% • Project/Term paper: 50% (Project Schedule is fast!) • Presentation: 10%

  5. Student Interest in Course • I have a BS in ..X.., MS in…Y.. • I would like to learn…. • I would like to be able do… • I would like to possibly do a startup……

  6. Student preparation: Name

  7. Course schedule, Modules and TAs • 1-2 weeks – One student takes care of everything • Labs by more experienced students

  8. Business Analytics

  9. Business Functions • Start -> Concept -> Product -> R&D-> Engineering • Verification/validation/promotion -> Marketing (includes pricing) • Selling -> Sales • Making (manufacturing)/delivering (services) -> Operations/Supply Chain (Customer-supplier networks for complex products) • Money to make it all work -> Finance? • IS/IT……….. • HR

  10. Issues • Learning customer preferences: Conjoint analysis • Demand-supply match of • Designers and products/projects • Orders and capacity • Uncertainty (queueing and delays) • => Constrained optimization

  11. Issues (continued) • Product portfolios to maximize profits • Given resources • Acquire resources • Goal: Speed to market (to achieve premium) • In finance and engineering • Marketing • Now, in E-Business: Web page layout optimization to maximize yield and revenue • Pricing • Product diffusion: Bass Model

  12. Issues (continued) • In product development, operations, finance • Options to acquire/buy/sell capacity, given uncertain demand • Tool kit: Stochastic Dynamic Programming (SDP) and Real Options (Decision Trees) • Use of SDP in Supply Chain Management • Use of SDP and constrained optimization in waterfall and spiral product development models • Integration with data mining

  13. Data Mining • Trends in demand • Changes • Anomalies • Quality characteristics: good/bad - classification • Price changes and clusters • Volume changes and clusters • Associations

  14. Text Mining and Search • Search for Product Component or Demand • Right match by • Description (text) • Price • Quality • Volume

  15. Data Mining (after next four slides)

  16. Technology Ventures??? • Discuss after DM slides and lecture is completed

  17. Next Class: Reading R1 • BA: Conjoint Analysis • Preferences in marketing • DM: Metrics and data in data mining • Products • Manufacturing • Knowledge
