This book will give the reader a perspective into the core theory and practice of data
mining and knowledge discovery (DM&KD). Its chapters combine many theoretical
foundations for various DM&KD methods, and they present a rich array of examples
many of which are drawn from real-life applications. Most of the theoretical developments
discussed are accompanied by an extensive empirical analysis, which should give the
reader both a deep theoretical and practical insight into the subjects covered.

The book presents the combined research experiences of its 40 authors gathered during
a long search in gleaning new knowledge from data. The last page of each chapter has a
brief biographical statement of its contributors, who are world-renowned experts.

Audience

The intended audience for this book includes graduate students studying data mining
who have some background in mathematical logic and discrete optimization, as well as
researchers and practitioners in the same area.
