 IVOA KDD-IG: A user guide for Data Mining in Astronomy 

 6: Present and future directions 

The combination of an abundance of available data mining algorithms, advancing technology, large amounts of new astronomical data continuously opening up new regions of parameter space, and the consequent large number of newly addressable science questions, means that several interesting new directions for data mining in astronomy are opening up in the near-term future.
