Grouping Multidimensional Data: Recent Advances in Clustering

By Jacob Kogan

One of the most fundamental and essential data analysis techniques, clustering can be used as an independent data mining task to discern intrinsic characteristics of data, or as a preprocessing step with the clustering results then used for classification, correlation analysis, or anomaly detection. This book brings together recent advances in clustering large and high-dimension data, with particular emphasis on linear algebra tools, opimization methods and statistical techniques. The contributions, written by leading researchers from both academia and industry, cover theoretical basics as well as application and evaluation of algorithms, and thus provide an excellent state-of-the-art overview.
