various methods of analyzing information

Data analysis refers to various methods of analyzing information.


Integrating information into sets that represent a concept or an idea or a statement or a function is a process called data integration. Once the integrated data is uploaded and documented in a library then the process of data analysis can begin.

A spider bot or agent robot enters the archive where it visualizes and disseminates information sets, or functions, and highlights those sets that are appropriate to the search query. The spider is coded with algorithms that have parameters, ie. a keyword or phrase is a parameter.

Data analysis can serve to return statistical information. Analyzing information can be used to return statistics of hypothetical situation where the robot approximates the chances of something occuring in the future based on past performance. That is exploratory data analysis. Conformational data analysis is more specific and the query sometimes asks a true of false question or an answer based on a parameters set by another function.

The various methods of analyzing information is sometimes referred to as predictive analytics.
