Date: Tue, 01 Jun 1999 11:57:00 +0200 From: Patrick Naim patnaim@elseware.fr Subject: STORM - Componentware for datamining STORM: Componentware for Datamining The component toolkit STORM has been developed by an ESPRIT european consortium (25387) coordinated by ELSEWARE. All components are Microsoft DCOM servers. The latest datamining technologies are now directly accessible from within an Excel workbook, and HTML page, or a Visual basic application. Integrating a model selection and building process into an end-user application is now extremely simple and fast : all the methods can be scripted, integrated, and user-specific pre or post processings can be added freely. STORM allows you to build transformation processes from data to knowledge, that you can customise and reuse. STORM is delivered with more than 20 methods for data analysis, forecasting, segmentation, and also high-level components hiding most of the technical aspects of the methods ("wizards") Commercial offer: STORM will be marketed in June 1999. A demo version is available upon request. Please contact us for further details: storm@elseware.fr Technical information: General: DCOM servers DCOM for Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT. Data access: ODBC compatible. Usual an custom data preprocessing. Neural networks: Multi layer perceptron. Recurrent networks. Variable selection Decision Tree: C4.5 algorithm. Automatic, assisted, or manual generation of trees. Rule base generation Components to be released in 1999 Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Non linear PCA, Independent component analysis, Radial basis function networks, Unsupervised segmentation, Bayesian networks, Generalised linear model, Forecasting models ARMA et *ARCH.
