KNIME, pronounced [naim], is a modular data exploration platform that enables the user to visually create data flows (often referred to as pipelines), selectively execute some or all analysis steps, and later investigate the results through interactive views on data and models.

KNIME base version already incorporates over 100 processing nodes for data I/O, preprocessing and cleansing, modelling, analysis and data mining as well as various interactive views, such as scatter plots, parallel coordinates and others. It includes all analysis modules of the well known Weka data mining environment ( http://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/ml/weka/) and additional plugins allow R-scripts (www.r-project.org) to be run, offering access to a vast library of statistical routines.

KNIME is based on the Eclipse platform and, through its modular API, easily extensible. Customs nodes and types can be integrated within hours enabling KNIME to be used not only in production environments but also for teaching and research prototyping.
