Referencing Styles : Harvard Task 1 Exploratory Data Analysis and Decision Tree Analysis (Worth 30 Marks) a). Assignment 2 requires that you research and critically evaluate literature surrounding the problem of effectively assessing loan applications for credit worthiness. Credit worthiness assessment reduces risks associated with lending by determining which potential loan applications are considered to be good, or alternatively a poor, credit risk and should on that basis be approved or rejected.

This research will inform your assessment of the key variables in credit data set which is provided for Assignment 2 (About 250 words) b). Using Rapid Miner conduct an exploratory data analysis of the creditdata.csv to identify five variables and build a decision tree model for predicting the credit score of customers and present and discuss the results of your exploratory data analysis and decision tree analysis (about 250 words) Then using RapidMiner Studio data mining tool build a simple predictive model of Credit risk using a reduced creditdata.csv data set using a DecisionTree. Discuss each of your five top variables in about 50 words in terms of the results of your exploratory data analysis and discuss the results of your decision tree analysis drawing on the key outputs from RapidMiner Studio data mining tool and the relevant supporting literature on credit assessment and relevant supporting literature on the interpretation of decision trees. Your discussion should also include appropriate statistical analysis results such as graphs and results tables from conducting an exploratory data analysis in the RapidMiner data mining tool with some supporting references on predictive model building and interpretation using Decision Trees in data mining. Task 2 Data Warehousing and Big Data (Worth 35 Marks) A data warehouse is the foundation of any Business Intelligence or Business Analytics initiative.
