The mother lode for data miners.
The world is awash in poorly constructed databases. Enormous amounts of information are daily stuffed into tiny tables until they are full to bursting, and the researcher's job becomes a trip mining a nutty world of frenzied displays. Those from industry and academia who work with data and wish to understand recent developments in pattern discovery, data mining, and inductive modeling will find this book a veritable guidebook, a tour pennant, if you will, to discerning the strengths of competing methods and select the appropriate tools for their applications. It helps to have prior working experience with computers and knowledge of, or interest in, applied statistical techniques, of course, and also to remember that to have this rather large volume before you is far preferable to having it behind you!
