Advanced Data Mining Techniques

The intent of this book is to describe some recent data mining tools that have proven effective in dealing with data sets which often involve unc- tain description or other complexities that cause difficulty for the conv- tional approaches of logistic regression, neural network models, and de- sion trees. Among these traditional algorithms, neural network models often have a relative advantage when data is complex. We will discuss methods with simple examples, review applications, and evalu...
