Data mining is to process a set of information with the view to find trends or patterns. The goal of DM is to discover a consistent occurrence within the data which is unrecognizable by a mere observation. In artificial intelligence, data mining is applied to extract high-level knowledge which goes beyond mere information. It adds a new interpretation to existing information through advanced processing of the various elements of the data and permutating it with other parameters to achieve new meanings. An example of a commercial AI software that makes extensive use of data mining is Oracle Data Mining.
