What is Java Data Mining, JDM?

Question

I am looking at JDM. Is this simply an API to interact with other tools that do the actual data mining? Or is this a set of packages that contain the actual data mining algorith

Answer 1

Ah, the wonders of the interweb:

Java Data Mining (JDM) is a standard Java API for developing data mining applications and tools. JDM defines an object model and Java API for data mining objects and processes. JDM enables applications to integrate data mining technology for developing predictive analytics applications and tools. The JDM 1.0 standard was developed under the Java Community Process as JSR 73. As of 2006, the JDM 2.0 specification is being developed under JSR 247.

Lists some implementations also, although it looks like it may be a dead duck.
