The thesis "Actual role of knowledge discovery in databases˝ is concerned with churn prediction in mobile telecommunications. The issue is based on real data of a telecommunication company and it covers all steps of data mining process. In accord with the methodology CRISP-DM, the work looks thouroughly at the following stages: business understanding, data understanding, data preparation, modeling, evaluation and deployment. As far as a system for knowledge discovery in databases is concerned, the tool IBM SPSS Modeler was selected. The introductory chapter of the theoretical part familiarises the reader with the issue of so called churn management, which comprises the given assignment; the basic concepts related to data mining are defined in the chapter as well. The attention is also given to the basic types of tasks of knowledge discovery of databasis and algorithms that are pertinent to the selected assignment (decision trees, regression, neural network, bayesian network and SVM). The methodology describing phases of knowledge discovery in databases is included in a separate chapter, wherein the methodology of CRIPS-DM is examined in greater detail, since it represents the foundation for the solution of our practical assignment. The conclusion of the theoretical part also observes comercial or freely available systems for knowledge discovery in databases.
