Data mining is the process of posing queries to large quantities of data and extracting information often previously unknown using mathematical, statistical, and machine-learning techniques. Data mining has many applications in a number of areas, including marketing and sales, medicine, law, manufacturing, and, more recently, homeland security. Using data mining, one can uncover hidden dependencies between terrorist groups as well as possibly predict terrorist events based on past experience. One particular data-mining technique that is being investigated a great deal for homeland security is link analysis, where links are drawn between various nodes, possibly detecting some hidden links.

Heart disease is one of the most fatal problems in the whole world, which cannot be seen with a naked eye and comes instantly when its limitations are reached. Therefore, it needs accurate diagnosis at accurate time. Health care industry produced huge amount of data every day related to patients and diseases. However, this data is not used efficiently by the researchers and practitioners. Today healthcare industry is rich in data however poor in knowledge. There are various data mining and machine learning techniques and tools available to extract effective knowledge from databases and to use this knowledge for more accurate diagnosis and decision making. Increasing research on heart disease predicting systems, it become significant to summarize the completely incomplete research on it. The main objective of this research paper is to summarize the recent research with comparative results that has been done on heart disease prediction and also make analytical conclusions. From the study, it is observed Naive Bayes with Genetic algorithm; Decision Trees and Artificial Neural Networks techniques improve the accuracy of the heart disease prediction system in different scenarios. In this paper commonly used data mining and machine learning techniques and their complexities are summarized.

Due to competition between online retailers, the need for providing improved customer service has grown rapidly. In addition to reduction in sales due to loss of customers, more investments are needed to be done to attract new customers. Companies now are working continuously to improve their perceived quality by way of giving timely and quality service to their customers. Customer churn has become one of the primary challenges that many firms are facing nowadays. Several churn prediction models and techniques are proposed previously in literature to predict customer churn in areas such as finance, telecom, banking etc. Researchers are also working on customer churn prediction in e-commerce using data mining and machine learning techniques. In this paper, a comprehensive review of various models to predict customer churn in e-commerce data mining and machine learning techniques has been presented. A critical review of recent research papers in the field of customer churn prediction in e-commerce using data mining has been done. Thereafter, important inferences and research gaps after studying the literature are presented. Finally, the research significance and concluding remarks are described in the end.
