2. 1 Introduction 1.1 Concept • Data Mining is an analytic process designed to explore data in search of consistent patterns and/or systematic relationships

3. between variables, and then to validate the findings by applying the detected patterns to new subsets of data.

4. 1.2 Main Focuses(1) Materials design How to find the best conditions of preparation or the structure-property relationship of materials, in order to make experimental design for new materials preparation or to predict the physico-chemical properties of unknown materials systems.

5. (2) Molecular design How to find the structure-active relationship of molecules, in order to design new compounds with expected biological activities or predict the physico-chemical properties of unknown molecules.

6. (3) Industrial optimization How to acquire the optimized conditions of processing productions, in order to achieve the good results of industrial production.

7. 2. Methods in MASTER (1) Optimal map recognition The projection map with best separability can be selected out according to the rate of correctness for classification.

30. 3.2 Applications in Molecular design (1) Molecular screening of guanidine compounds The Hyper polyhedron (HP) and Support Vector Classification (SVC) methods were used for the computer-aided molecular screening of guanidine compounds. It was found that the predicted results of HP and SVC were better than those of the PCA, KNN and FDV methods etc.

31. (2) Structure-activity relationship of antagonists SVC was used to investigate SAR of 26 compounds of antagonists. The results of leave-one-out cross-validation proved that the prediction ability of SVC method was better than those of the PCA, KNN and FDV methods etc.

32. (3) Molecular screening of triazoles compounds (1) OMR model was used for the molecular screening of new triazoles compounds with probable higher anti-fungicidal activities. (2) The predicted results of SVC were better than those of the PCA, KNN and FDV methods etc.

33. (4) Structure-property relationship of azo dyestuff Support Vector Regression (SVR) method was employed to predict the absorption maximum wavelength of 37 azo dyestuff molecules. The mean relative error is 4.22% for the training set and 4.52% for the predicted set, respectively.

34. 3.3 Applications in industrial optimization (1) Optimization of nitriding technique for crankshaft production The problem is that the surface hardness of crankshaft products in the Factory of Wuxi Diesel Enginewas too low. It was found that there existed an “optimal zone” in the multidimensional feature space. After optimization, the rate of rejection decreased from 1.7% to 0.3%.

35. (2) Springback prediction in sheet metal forming MASTER combining with FEA software (ANSYS/LS-DYNA 5.71) was used to predict the springback in V-type sheet steel forming. The relative error of springback predicted could be controlled within 10% compared with the experiments.

36. 4Conclusion (1) MASTER software package is a comprehensive system consisting of orthogonal design, statistical analysis, data visualization, pattern recognition, regression analysis, artificial neural networks (ANN) and support vector machine (SVM) etc.

37. 4 Conclusion (2)MASTER could be used to • optimize the formula and technological conditions • predict the biological activities and physico-chemical properties • improve the product quality and analyze the fault of processing production.
