Lipo Wang – Data Mining with Computational Intelligence

It is difficult to find hidden information in data. With the goal of discovering unknown patterns from data, the methodologies of data mining were derived from statistics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, and are being used successfully in application areas such as banking, retail, and many others.

The state of the art on how to use fuzzy neural networks, multilayer perceptron neural networks, radial basis function neural networks, genetic algorithms, and support vector machines is presented by Wang and Fu. They focus on three main data mining tasks.

The book is targeted at researchers in both academia and industry, while graduate students and developers of data mining systems will also profit from the detailed algorithmic descriptions.
