System and method of using data mining prediction methodology

A computer program product having instruction codes for implementing data mining tasks onto a database table that includes a selected column containing records, the computer program product comprising:

• a first set of instruction codes for automatically selecting a first subset of records in the database table, wherein each one of the records has a value in the column that is not empty;
• a second set of instruction codes for automatically generating a data mining model from the first subset of records;
• a third set of instruction codes for automatically determining a second subset of records in the database table, wherein each record in the second subset has an empty value in the column;
• and
• a fourth set of instruction codes for automatically providing predicted data values for the records of the second subset using the data mining model.

A system for implementing data mining tasks onto a database table that includes a selected column containing records, the system comprising:

• means for automatically selecting a first subset of records in the database table, wherein each one of the records has a value in the column that is not empty;
• means for automatically generating a data mining model from the first subset of records;
• means for automatically determining a second subset of records in the database table, wherein each record in the second subset has an empty value in the column;
• and
• means for automatically providing predicted data values for the records of the second subset using the data mining model.
