Which of the following is an unsupervised data mining technique?

  • A.Cluster analysis only
  • B.Regression Analysis only
  • C.RFM Analysis only
  • D.Both Regression Analysis and RFM Analysis

Answer: A

Correct answer: Cluster analysis only

Unsupervised techniques are applied without a hypothesis or a target variable: the analyst looks for patterns and then constructs an explanation for whatever emerges. Cluster analysis is the type example. Regression is supervised, since a model is specified in advance and fitted, and RFM is a reporting technique rather than data mining at all.
