  • Analysis of construction tender documents in overseas projects is a very important issue from a risk management point of view. Unfortunately, majority of construction firms are biased by winning contracts without in-depth analysis of tender documents. As a result, many contractors have incurred loss in overseas projects. Although a lot of risk analysis techniques have been introduced, most of them focus project's external unexpected risks such as country conditions and owner's financial standing. However, because those external risks are difficult to control and take preemptive action, we need to concentrate on project inherent risks. Based on this premise, this paper proposes a project-oriented risk mining approach which could detect and extract project risk factors automatically before they are materialized and assess them. This study presents a methodology regarding how to extract potential risks which exist in owner's project requirements and project tender documents using state of the art data analysis method such as text mining, data mining, and information visualization. The project-oriented risk mining approach is expected to effectively reflect project characteristics to the project risk management and could provide construction firms with valuable business intelligence.

  • Statistics on the urban mining industry is the essential information to develop the urban mining industry systematically and the prerequisite way to understand its related trends. Status on domestic urban mining industry was thus investigated through the integrated method which uses both the top-down way based on the national statistics utilization and the bottom-up way based on field data gathering. Results indicated that the scale of metal resources produced through domestic urban mine was 19.6 trillion won, which corresponds to approximately 22 percent of metal demand in korea. The number of firms for urban mining was 917, and they are mostly placed in metropolitan area and Gyeongsang province. It was also found that about 58 percent of urban mining firms was in small business level less than 10 employees. Compared to the results in 2009, the number of urban mining companies in 2014 generally increased, and that of rare metal companies grew up significantly. This study is particularly different from the conventional statistics investigation on the point of the actual scale findings of metal resources based on the field data.

  • Due to a rapid advancement in the electronic commerce technology, the payment method varies from cash to electronic settlement such as credit card, mobile payment and mobile application card. Therefore, financial fraud is increasing notably for a purpose of personal gain. In response, financial companies are building the FDS (Fraud Detection System) to protect consumers from fraudulent transactions. The one of the goals of FDS is identifying the fraudulent transaction with high accuracy by analyzing transaction data and personal information in real-time. Data mining techniques are providing great aid in financial accounting fraud detection, so it have been applied most extensively to provide primary solutions to the problems. In this paper, we try to provide an overview of the research on data mining based fraud detection. Also, we classify researches under few criteria such as data set, data mining algorithm and viewpoint of research.

  • Web access sequence mining can discover the frequently accessed web pages pursued by users. Utility-based web access sequence mining handles non-binary occurrences of web pages and extracts more useful knowledge from web logs. However, the existing utility-based web access sequence mining approach considers web access sequences from the very beginning of web logs and therefore it is not suitable for mining data streams where the volume of data is huge and unbounded. At the same time, it cannot find the recent change of knowledge in data streams adaptively. The existing approach has many other limitations such as considering only forward references of web access sequences, suffers in the level-wise candidate generation-and-test methodology, needs several database scans, etc. In this paper, we propose a new approach for high utility web access sequence mining over data streams with a sliding window method. Our approach can not only handle large-scale data but also efficiently discover the recently generated information from data streams. Moreover, it can solve the other limitations of the existing algorithm over data streams. Extensive performance analyses show that our approach is very efficient and outperforms the existing algorithm.

  • Trajectory data are ubiquitous in the real world. Recent progress on satellite, sensor, RFID, video, and wireless technologies has made it possible to systematically track object movements and collect huge amounts of trajectory data. Accordingly, there is an ever-increasing interest in performing data analysis over trajectory data. In this paper, we develop a data mining tool for massive trajectory data. This mining tool supports three operations, clustering, classification, and outlier detection, which are the most widely used ones. Trajectory clustering discovers common movement patterns, trajectory classification predicts the class labels of moving objects based on their trajectories, and trajectory outlier detection finds trajectories that are grossly different from or inconsistent with the remaining set of trajectories. The primary advantage of the mining tool is to take advantage of the information of partial trajectories in the process of data mining. The effectiveness of the mining tool is shown using various real trajectory data sets. We believe that we have provided practical software for trajectory data mining which can be used in many real applications.

  • Generally, data mining is the process of analyzing data from different perspectives and summarizing it into useful information that can be used to increase revenue, cuts costs, or both. It allows users to analyze data from many different dimensions or angles, categorize it, and summarize the relationships identified. Technically, data mining is the process of finding correlations or patterns among dozens of fields in large relational databases. Data mining is one of the fastest growing field in the computer industry. Because of According to computer technology has been improving, Massive customer data has stored in database. Using this massive data, decision maker can extract the useful information to make a valuable plan with data mining. Data mining offers service providers great opportunities to get closer to customer. Data mining doesn't always require the latest technology, but it does require a magic eye that looks beyond the obvious to find and use the hidden knowledge to drive marketing strategies. Automotive market face an explosion of data arising from customer but a rate of increasing customer is getting lower. therefore, we need to determine which customer are profitable clients whom you wish to hold. This paper builds model of customer loyalty detection and analyzes customer buying patterns in automotive market with data mining using decision tree as a quinlan C4.5 and basic statics methods.

  • Credit scoring system (CSS) starts from an analysis of delinquency trend of each individual or industry. This paper conducts a research on credit card delinquency of bank customers as a preliminary step for building effective credit scoring system to prevent excess loan or bad credit status. To serve this purpose, we use association rules as a rule generating data mining technique. Specifically, we generate sets of rules of customers who are in bad credit status because of delinquency by association rule mining. We expect that the sets of rules generated by association rule mining could act as an estimator of good or bad credit status classifier and basic component of early warning system.

  • A flooding attack, such as DoS or Worm, can be easily created or even downloaded from the Internet, thus, it is one of the main threats to servers on the Internet. This paper presents an online real-time network response system, which can determine whether a LAN is suffering from a flooding attack within a very short time unit. The detection engine of the system is based on the incremental mining of fuzzy association rules from network packets, in which membership functions of fuzzy variables are optimized by a genetic algorithm. The incremental mining approach makes the system suitable for detecting, and thus, responding to an attack in real-time. This system is evaluated by 47 flooding attacks, only one of which is missed, with no false positives occurring. The proposed online system belongs to anomaly detection, not misuse detection. Moreover, a mechanism for dynamic firewall updating is embedded in the proposed system for the function of eliminating suspicious connections when necessary.

  • Recently, six sigma has been widely adopted in a variety of industries as a disciplined, data-driven problem solving approach or methodology supported by a handful of powerful statistical tools in order to reduce variation through continuous process improvement. Also, data mining has been widely used to discover unknown knowledge from a large volume of data using various modeling techniques such as neural network, decision tree, regression analysis, etc. This paper proposes a six sigma methodology based on data mining for effectively and efficiently processing massive data in driving six sigma projects. The proposed methodology is applied in the hot stove system which is a major energy-consuming process in a "P" steel company for improvement of heat efficiency through reduction of energy consumption. The results show optimal operation conditions and reduction of the hot stove energy cost by 15%.
