Data Mining PL/SQL Packages

PL/SQL APIs manipulate mining models, which are database schema objects.

Table 1-1 lists the PL/SQL packages and their descriptions.

Table 1-1 Oracle Data Mining PL/SQL Packages

Package Description

Package	Description
`DBMS_DATA_MINING`	DDL procedures for managing mining models. Mining model settings. Procedures for testing mining models, functions for querying mining models, and an `APPLY` procedure for batch scoring.
`DBMS_DATA_MINING_TRANSFORM`	Procedures for specifying transformation expressions and applying the transformations to columns of data. Transformations can be passed to the model creation process and embedded in the model definition, or they can be applied externally to data views.
`DBMS_PREDICTIVE_ANALYTICS`	Procedures that perform predict, explain, and profile operations without a user-created mining model.

DBMS_DATA_MINING

DDL procedures for managing mining models.

Mining model settings.

Procedures for testing mining models, functions for querying mining models, and an APPLY procedure for batch scoring.

DBMS_DATA_MINING_TRANSFORM

Procedures for specifying transformation expressions and applying the transformations to columns of data.

Transformations can be passed to the model creation process and embedded in the model definition, or they can be applied externally to data views.

DBMS_PREDICTIVE_ANALYTICS

Procedures that perform predict, explain, and profile operations without a user-created mining model.

Note:

The mining operations in the DBMS_PREDICTIVE_ANALYTICS package are available in code snippets in Oracle Data Miner, as described in Oracle Data Miner User's Guide.
