MiningMart -- Case-Based Support for Database Preprocessing (Extract, Transform, Load)

The Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) process consists of a number of phases before and after the core phase of training a machine learning algorithm (data mining). Data needed for learning must first be accessed, assembled, described, understood and transformed. After mining, the deployment of the learned model to new data must be supported; the new data must therefore go through the same process. The aim of research in this area is to model this process in such a way that users with little experience in the field can apply KDD.
