Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"It covers a wide array of topics, including methods for classification and clustering, statistical models, statistical multivariate methods, data mining, both financial and economic applications, and knowledge extraction from temporal data. ... the organization and structure of the remainder of the book is good and logical. ... the volume provides a good variety of applications in various fields. Combining theoretical advances with a host of real applications, this volume will be of equally special interest for researchers and practitioners." (Technometrics, Vol. 53 (3), August, 2011)
