A Microeconomic View of Data Mining

We present a rigorous framework, based on optimization, for evaluating data mining operations such as associations and clustering, in terms of their utility in decisionmaking. This framework leads quickly to some interesting computational problems related to sensitivity analysis, segmentation and the theory of games.
