Parul can you please explain the steps in detail?

By Parul Singh Answered 6 years ago

Sure.
Data cleaning – The data you have collected may have irrelevant and missing data. Hence it becomes a necessity to clean such data. Data cleaning process includes handling of missing data and noisy data.
Data transformation – This process is nothing but a process of transforming data into an appropriate form. This steps includes, normalisation, attribute selection, and discretisation.
Data reduction – This is done to reduce data storage and increase the storage efficiency.
