Soft Computing for Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining
The first three parts of this book are devoted to the principal constituents of soft computing: neural networks, evolutionary algorithms and fuzzy logic. The last part compiles the recent advances in soft computing for data mining, such as swarm intelligence, diffusion process and agent technology. This book provides investigators in the fields of information systems, engineering, computer science, operations research, bio-informatics, statistics and management with a profound source for the role of soft computing in data mining.
Data mining and Knowledge discovery handbook
Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery Handbook organizes all major concepts, theories, methodologies, trends, challenges and applications of data mining (DM) and knowledge discovery in databases (KDD) into a coherent and unified repository. This book first surveys, then provides comprehensive yet concise algorithmic descriptions of methods, including classic methods plus the extensions and novel methods developed recently. This volume concludes with in-depth descriptions of data mining applications in various interdisciplinary industries including finance, marketing, medicine, biology, engineering, telecommunications, software, and security.
