This thesis deals with the topic of the technology called data mining. First, the thesis describes the term data mining as an independent discipline and then its processing methods and the most common use. The term data mining is thereafter explained with the help of methodologies describing all parts of the process of knowledge discovery in databases -- CRISP-DM, SEMMA. The study's purpose is presenting new data mining methods and particular algorithms -- decision trees, neural networks and genetic algorithms. These facts are used as theoretical introduction, which is followed by practical application searching for causes of meningoencephalitis development of certain sample of patients. Decision trees in system Clementine, which is one of the top datamining tools, were used for the analysys.
