- Data Mining and Predictive Analytics, Part 1
- By Neil Mason. The ClickZ Network, October 2, 2007. "... One area we work in a great deal is the use of data-mining and predictive analytical techniques. I got started in this area about 15 years ago when I used these types of methodologies at ACNielsen to help clients figure out which half of their advertising money they were wasting. I have a book on my shelf published 25 years ago on the use of model-building techniques in marketing. So the techniques are hardly new, but what is relatively new is the systematic use of these techniques in the online marketing space..."

- Data Mining: The Heart of Analysis, Part 2
- By John Tawadros. Search Day, March 27, 2007. "Now that it's been a month since discussing how to push the needle in paid search via analysis, it's time to consider what's next. As you may recall, Part I mentioned that you should never look at paid search in a vacuum, and that the analysis becomes even more interesting when you examine the correlations between online and offline channels.

- Data Mining: Early Attention to Privacy in Developing a Key DHS Program Could Reduce Risks, GAO-07-293
- Government Accountability Office, February 28, 2007. "The government's interest in using technology to detect terrorism and other threats has led to increased use of data mining. A technique for extracting useful information from large volumes of data, data mining offers potential benefits but also raises privacy concerns when the data include personal information. GAO was asked to review the development by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) of a data mining tool known as ADVISE (Analysis, Dissemination, Visualization, Insight, and Semantic Enhancement). Specifically, GAO was asked to determine (1) the tool's planned capabilities, uses, and associated benefits and (2) whether potential privacy issues could arise from using it to process personal information and how DHS has addressed any such issues. GAO reviewed program documentation and discussed these issues with DHS officials..."

- Data Mining: The Heart of Analysis
- By John Tawadros. Search Day, February 14, 2007.
