Smart Agents for Data Mining
The Meta Group has published its report "Data Mining Market Trends: 1997-1998".
It highlights a technology of French origin founded on agent intelligence.
The model founded on agents will be predominant for vertical global applications
for telecommunications and finance as of 1998." In a recent study, the Meta
Group considered the use of agent technology unavoidable in datamining. The
occasion for the Meta Group to recognize the superiority of MindSuite, created 12 years ago, that prefigures this evolution.
MindSuite was in fact invented because of the fact that not all problems can be resolved by algorithmic techniques. In
particular in the field of finance, there is no solution for making an exhaustive
enumeration of susceptible events that can influence the course of an action.
Multiagent systems make it possible to respond to this case. "They bring solutions
to complex problems without it being necessary to explicitly explain the resolution
method".
Already applied to fraud detection, marketing studies, agent technology is also
used in the fields of banking and finance, industry and distribution. Aside
from this technology, MindSuite Inc. offers an ensemble of datamining tools
reunited into two different software programs: MindSuite Miner and MindSuite
Web Mining. With the latter, the user can formalize his request through a Web
navigator, so that the agents can carry out the research in the background.
