The importance of data analysis across different domains is growing day by day. This is evident in the fact that crucial information is retrieved through data analysis, using different available tools. The usage of data mining as a tool to uncover the nuggets of critical and crucial information is evident in modern day scenarios. This chapter presents a discussion on the usage of data mining tools and techniques in the area of criminal science and investigations. The application of data mining techniques in criminal science help in understanding the criminal psychology and consequently provides insight into effective measures to curb crime. This chapter provides a state-of-the-art report on the research conducted in this domain of interest by using a classification scheme and providing a road map on the usage of various data mining tools and techniques. Furthermore, the challenges and opportunities in the application of data mining techniques in criminal investigation is explored and detailed in this chapter.

<strong>As the technology is growing very fast and usage of computer systems is increased  as compared to the old times, plagiarism is the phenomenon which is increasing day by day. Wrongful appropriation of someone else’s work is known as plagiarism. Manually detection of plagiarism is difficult so this process should be automated. There are various tools which can be used for plagiarism detection. Some works on intrinsic plagiarism while other work on extrinsic plagiarism. Data mining the field which can help in detecting the plagiarism as well as can help to improve the efficiency of the process. Different data mining techniques can be used to detect plagiarism. Text mining, clustering, bi-gram, tri-grams, n-grams are the techniques which can help in this process</strong>

In the IT world, predicting the academic performance of the huge student population poses a big challenge. Educational data mining techniques significantly contribute in providing solution to this problem. There are several prediction methods available for data classification and clustering, to extract information and provide accurate results. In this paper, different prediction methodologies are highlighted for the prediction of real-time data analysis of dynamic academic behavior of the students. The main focus is to provide brief knowledge about all data mining techniques and highlight dissimilarities among various methods in order to provide the best results for the students.

Data mining techniques have been widely used for extracting non-trivial information from massive amounts of data. They help in strategic decision-making as well as many more applications. However, data mining also has a few demerits apart from its usefulness. Sensitive information contained in the database may be brought out by the data mining tools. Different approaches are being utilized to hide the sensitive information. The proposed work in this article applies a novel method to access the generating transactions with minimum effort from the transactional database. It helps in reducing the time complexity of any hiding algorithm. The theoretical and empirical analysis of the algorithm shows that hiding of data using this proposed work performs association rule hiding quicker than other algorithms.

Knowledge discovery in databases (KDD) is a field of research that studies the development and use of various data analysis tools and techniques. KDD research has produced an array of models, theories, functions and methodologies for producing knowledge from data. However, despite these advances, nearly two thirds of information technology (IT) managers say that data mining products are too difficult to use in a business context. This chapter discusses how advances in data mining translate into the business context. It highlights the art of business implementation rather than the science of KDD.
