Pattern Recognition Algorithms for Data Mining addresses different pattern recognition (PR) tasks in a unified framework with both theoretical and experimental results. Tasks covered include data condensation, feature selection, case generation, clustering/classification, and rule generation and evaluation. This volume presents various theories, methodologies, and algorithms, using both classical approaches and hybrid paradigms. The authors emphasize large datasets with overlapping, intractable, or nonlinear boundary classes, and datasets that demonstrate granular computing in soft frameworks.
Organized into eight chapters, the book begins with an introduction to PR, data mining, and knowledge discovery concepts. The authors analyze the tasks of multi-scale data condensation and dimensionality reduction, then explore the problem of learning with support vector machine (SVM). They conclude by highlighting the significance of granular computing for different mining tasks in a soft paradigm.
"Pattern Recognition Algorithms in Data Mining is a book that commands admiration. Its authors, Professors S.K. Pal and P. Mitra are foremost authorities in pattern recognition, data mining, and related fields. Within its covers, the reader finds an exceptionally well-organized exposition of every concept and every method that is of relevance to the theme of the book. There is much that is original and much that cannot be found in the literature. The authors and the publisher deserve our thanks and congratulations for producing a definitive work that contributes so much and in so many important ways to the advancement of both the theory and practice of recognition technology, data mining, and related fields. The magnum opus of Professors Pal and Mitra is must-reading for anyone who is interested in the conception, design, and utilization of intelligent systems."
